It might not count as that. On B1/B2, you cannot even open a bank account. This status does not permit you to be in the US longer than a specified period of time stated in your passport. However, you can perhaps give biometrics in the US
Thanks . But does that mean that I can apply from US but I will have to enter canada from my home country, If I receive the visa grant. Please confirm I am not able to go back right now, but will b able to go back only after a month or so.

Once you apply, your case is going to be processed at that country. Plus, application review might take a long time, people on the forum were waiting for over half a year on a decision(or simply ppr) for Fall 2020. In addition, if there is any problem with medicals your application process might extend to up to 3 months (simply to get medical pass). Are you currently in valid status? What date is in your passport stamp when you crossed through the border control?

Is this the date until your visa expires or the date an officer wrote on your entry stamp? It is a good idea nonetheless to travel back. You may use this time to get upfront medical if it is not possible to currently do in your country
