While a previous overstay in the U.S. doesn't automatically disqualify her from obtaining a Canadian visitor visa, it may lead to increased scrutiny of her application. To improve her chances of approval, ensure that all supporting documents are comprehensive and that she can convincingly demonstrate her intention to abide by Canadian visa conditions.

Yes, it can impact. How much of an impact can depend on factors such as the length of her overstay and how long ago this happened, as well as her ties to her home country. Make sure she declares the overstay in her TRV application to Canada.

This is why the USA & Canada share visitor visa information

If she didn’t abide by the rules in the USA, Canada might feel she’s a overstay risk here
