Hi everyone

History:
Canada student visa - Sept 2017-Aug2019
Canada Open Work visa - Aug 2019-August 2022 (but I resigned and left Canada in Oct 2020 to be with spouse in US on H4 visa)
Applied for Visit Visa from US on March 9 2022 ( Reason given :to visit brother in Canada and stay for 7 days)
Biometrics given : April 5th 2022
Biometrics updated : April 5th 2022

Any chances for rejection? I have travel history to India, Mexico and Belize in 2021. Will the fact that my canadian Work visa is expiring in Aug 2022 cause doubt in visa officers mind?
I am unemployed here in US. Gave spouses bank statement and marriage certificate as proof of relationship. (we will travelling together and spouse already has valid visit visa for Canada)

Thoughts?

There is always a chance of rejection. Your ties to US aren’t that strong and you have a WP that is expiring soon. It also depends on the length of visit to Canada, other ties that you haven’t mentioned to the US, your savings amount, etc. You’ll need to wait and see.
