Hi All,
Because i have more ties in my country of citizenship such as properties, can i apply from my home country
I currently live outside of my home country elsewhere on a work permit and do not have much ties to prove so i was thinking of flying back and applying from my country of citizenship
Will this cause any issues for visit visa?
Thanks a ton!

It does not work that way.

You have properties in your home country, but those properties are not active ties that would compel you to return. On the other hand, your active ties.... which you must return to.... are in your country of residence (employment, lease, finances, maybe family, etc).

You must demonstrate your ties to both countries i.e your country of residence (plus your immigration status there) as well as to your home country
