Thanks. Seems to tick most known boxes.
I wonder why it took 3 applications. Just curious , when were the previous 2 applications filed and major difference from the last one ? Did they mention any reason for rejecting the earlier two applications ?

ICA advised to submit a fresh application for the baby after the decision on the current application is taken.

I'd say wait 2 years (24 months of consecutive employment). If you had a degree, I'd say go ahead and try now. If you try now, you might get frustrated if you get a rejection letter initially. Anecdotally, we play safe with 24 months of employments before the first application. You buys yer ticket and takes yer chances. :wink:
