I wish to get some advice on PR approval chances for my family. Thanks a lot for your attention and time.
Context
My previous application was submitted in April 2024, after the birth of my daughter, I sent an email to ICA asking if I can add my newborn daughter to the application. The email came back to me indicating that I can't and I can either apply for my daughter only if myself and wife are approved or apply together if we are rejected. A week after the email we got rejected in late Oct 2024. I was hoping it's a positive signal for my current application, but I also realize it's just around the 6 month mark since my application too. In between April 2024 application and Nov 2024 Application, both myself and wife got handsome raise in base pay as well, on top of the new member of the family.
Date of application: 5th Nov 2024
Applicants: Myself, Wife and 2-month old daughter (at the time of application)
Race: Others
