Did your two girls get PR along with your wife in 2019 (after multiple tries) or shortly after birth?

Honestly, I don't see many red flags. Married with kids, ethnic quota ok, salary is not a liability, plus PR for 14 years. Should have a pretty good shot.

Couple of add’l points they might consider….

How is your involvement in the community?
How are your daughters’ grades?
How is your wife’s education?

Not sure the ethnic quota can be characterized as ok… perhaps better described as a challenge.

I am not an expert on this lol, but that fact that his daughters are in local school and his wife got PR recently, I think they have pretty good chance.

Agree. The fact that the wife got PR recently indicates that they are moving in the right direction.

I meant that it's OK relative to being in the others category.

I don't think they will go so far as to consider the children's grades, that seems very unfair and irrelevant when considering the families potential to contribute since performance at such a young age is meaningless and indicates nothing.

They asked my SIL for her kids’ grades when they all applied for SC last year… but to your point, all are all at least in secondary school. I do not know if they ask at the primary level.

That's true, he never mentioned the ages of the children. I just assumed they had to be pretty young since OP is pretty young.

Quite honestly, I don't think this matters much on its own, what would carry more weight would be her job and industry.
