At this point in time, you don't have a chance. Wait until your family has been here for at least two years before applying.

No.
I think reading the guidelines for PR application as set out on the ICA website would help though. Looking at the requirements might help a bit too, but then I guess it's easier to just come on a forum and keep asking until someone finally tells you you have a good chance instead
And to reply to your PM (why you felt the need to PM me I have no idea), no I don't have anything against people from the sub-continent but a lot of guys from there don't exactly do themselves any favours with the complete lack of ability to research something themselves before asking daft questions? I presume you sent a PM to everyone who expresses this opinion, because I'm far from the only one, funny that huh?
