Hello I’m filling up the visitor extension form, I’m waiting for some documents to apply for the PR , (spouse sponsorship)
My questions are:

-Coming on to Canadá question 1 , date of your original entry to Canada is the first time I came to Canada ever ? Can’t remember the exact date...
-on details of visit to Canada , so I choose family visit since I’m living with my husband who is Canadian resident or choose other and explain I’m waiting for documents to submit my spouse sponsor application?
-I’m documents list what they mean with proof of support exactly?
Thank you

the date you entered Canada with the visa you are trying tore-new. It's in your passport (the entry stamp)

-on details of visit to Canada , so I choose family visit since I’m living with my husband who is Canadian resident or choose other and explain I’m waiting for documents to submit my spouse sponsor application?
If you are planning to state dual intent family visit should be okay. At the same time you are supposed to convince the officer that you do not have any intentions to remain illegally in Canada should your application be refused (Visitor Record or PR application).... I read this when I was applying to extend my stay before I applied for PR: Subsection A22(2) states: “An intention by a foreign national to become a permanent resident does not preclude them from becoming a temporary resident if the officer is satisfied that they will leave Canada by the end of the period authorized for their stay”. Dual intent on the part of the applicant is therefore not prima facie grounds for refusal of temporary resident status. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/temporary-residents/visitors/dual-intent-applicants.html

-I’m documents list what they mean with proof of support exactly?
Proof of means of Financial Support

Not necessary. Unless you want someone else to receive info about your application.

"Use this form if you want to allow Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to release your personal information to someone you choose. The person you choose will be able to get information on your case file, such as the status of your application."

Current territory of residence (Canada) , status (visitor) and from date (Entry date) To (the date when your status will end)

Then on when you go further down you will come across details of visit to Canada where you will be required to indicate how long you intend to stay (From date when status is expected to end to long you intend to stay...if its 6 months then it should be 6 months from that date)

Can you rephrase your question? Not sure what you mean by move to Canada while in the US? You CANNOT move to Canada on a visitor visa to live. You can visit though.

thank you so much for your response Canuck_in_uk. I was also thinking to attach a cover letter with the medicals. What do you think should I mention in the cover letter. Not sure what to explain in letter.

You don't need a cover letter.
