Thank you. Do you know of any factors that may hinder success of such an application?

obilec:
My husband is canadian and invited me to spend Christmas with him. Schooling and working here in Nigeria. I have been to dubai and some other countries. It’s confusing.

@obilec, Now it's clearer, your husband is your Canadaian (strong) tie. So the Visa officer is probably thinking if you join him, you may end up overstaying and violating the visit visa policy. (As no job nor school can stop the bond of a married couple )
So therefore, just as @Nothingdome has rightly proposed, the spousal sponsorship has been designed for this kind of scenario. I think you should ply that route.

From the recent trend, Online Applications seem more efficient in processing time and effective in terms of approvals, as compared to paper from mid year 2019, so if you are considering applying , you may want to try this route. (Please this is all my personal opinion, and can be wrong)

Shikena....

i was the representative, but dad was the primary applicant and sponsor, so mum and I didn't submit any account statement or proof of funds. The marriage certificate ties parents together and my birth certificate is the link to their union, My ties to naija seemed to be featherweight as compared to ties to canada and this is not good so I submitted my personal landed property. No letter of explanation was submitted from any of us, just my siblings invitation.

Hope this helps some one out there just as I got help here too.... my prayer is all those that applied here be favoured , Amen..

Congratulations Enjoy your trip

If his business isn't registered with CAC, then its difficult to prove it's a legitimate business , however if you can prove it somehow then you are good, I think the type of bank account doesn't matter, but you may have to explain why its a savings account and so on, because your duty is to convince the Visa officer beyond doubt that you are eligible for the visa.

Guys when you submit your application the only time you should start worrying about the length of time is when it’s prolly day 75 cos my passport request came on day 63 so if you are on day 40 or 50 just calm down hahahaha. All the best to those who are still waiting. ��������
