Hi,
I have a situation, I got married three months ago and had applied for a canada visa before marriage which got rejected.I also applied for a USA visa which I got. My husband is a Canadian PR holder and we have already applied for a Spousal PR application and the Sponsor my husband just got approved yesterday. My question is can I apply for a canadian tourist visa from USA, even though I am just visiting here or I need to apply from my home country India? If I can apply from USA, can I remain without the passport in USA when it is submitted to the canadian embassy?

You can certainly apply for a Canadian visitor visa from the US. It's typically more difficult to be approved for a visitor visa if you are outside of your own country since this makes it more difficult to prove that you have strong ties to your home country. However you can certainly give it a try.
