Income > $400k pa
Homeowner (private property)
Applied for husband and wife. Did not apply for children (girls) due to schooling reasons.
Indian, top tier university, working in IT
While circumstances are always unique, may be useful to note another junior colleague working in the same company at a lower salary level got approved when they applied as a complete family unit (also Indian).

There might be 200 such changes on a single page. It clearly really mattered to him, a lot!
