you can apply for a visit visa as well as applying for your sponsorship, in most cases a visitor visa are almost rejected.i will suggest that you apply for just a visitor visa, it wont take too much time to get a positive or negative reply. if you get your visa you can get in canada an apply for an inside canada sponsorship, if you do not get your visa you can then apply for an outside canada sponsrship. the getting or rejecting of the visitor visa will not affect your application

thx a lot for your reply ... so the history of a rejected visa wont affect the sponsorship application?
and should I mention in the reason of applying for visit visa that I am going to visit my husband? or just a tourist ?what do u think will be more acceptable ?
