another individual of the same category, for what he had applied before

the date of application for approval of sponsorship, and or if the charged has been withdrawn, dismissed,
disposed or without the recording of convictions and there is a compelling circumstances affecting the sponsor or

(ii) any children of the applicant who is seeking to satisfy the primary
criteria for the grant of the visa concerned;
