Yes. As replied. If you live and work in US and only keep a house/condo own/lease in Canada, then Canada is NOT your primary resident.
So you are not considered as residing/living in Canada.
No issue but your mother can not move to Canada on a supervisa so should arrive in Canada like any other visitor with a home to return to, without all her belongings,etc. Until she lands as a PR she remains a visitor and could have to return home if for whatever reason her PR application is denied.
Thank you.
I watched some videos and figured for "Name in native language".
One can use google translate and type the name in English and convert in your native language and copy/paste on the form.
This worked so sharing here in case someone else asks the same question.
Thanks again.
Hello everyone.
I got the invitation to sponsor my Mom on October 17, 2023 but then I have a concern. I am a citizen but currently out of the country for the next 12 to 18 months to join my husband who works outside of the country. Our relocation is temporary as I earlier said. We only leased out our property for now which is our main address.
My Mom is a widow who have been shuttling between Canada and our home country on visiting visa. I left Canada July 2023 after I resigned from my job and the I received this invitation to sponsor from 2020. I met the three years income. But on the sponsrship Declaration form, it says you can still sponsor being a citizen even when you reside out of Canada. Even though it says you can't sponsor if you are not in Canada. All my siblings are citizens and Permanent residents of Canada except for one is a student. Can my Mom's PR still be granted even though I am not in Canada now but coming back soon. I met all the income requirements. I have waited for years for this opportunity that came just when I stepped out of the country.
Please advise me.

You have to pick a priority. If it's your mother's PR application, then you'll need to return to Canada now to submit the application and then continue to live in Canada until her PR application is approved. Short trips outside of Canada will be fine. But you'll need to be spending the majority of your time living in the country.
The rule for sponsorship while outside of Canada only applies to Canadian citizens sponsoring their spouses.
Thank you for the link. The link clearly says that I need to give biometrics again even if the last ones are valid if they were for visitor visa last time.
Guys on Uploading the Picture of Principal applicant, So upload both, the Front and the back of the ID Picture?
I guess i'm going to take a picture of the back and upload it. Is that correct?

You can label them as front and back but yes, you have to upload both sides
