[MW:27789] Aluminum MIG Welding - failed PQR

Dear experts 

regarding A/M Subject kindly advice why the PQR Test had been failed two times even this WPS/PQR Approved before and we just tried to copy it 

all welders 2 times failed in root bend / tension some times not reach 250 MPA as required  (2 root bend + 2 root face + 2 tensile testing are required)

the lab said first time there are porosity
and inclusions but even 2nd test was failed  (attached photos for your reference) 

BASE METAL       :  AA 5083 H 321  
FILLER METAL       :  ER 5356  
Joint Preparation: -              Single V CPJ
