I-131 form, can I make an entry in USA and leave right after?

I am in Canada currently and have a Green Card.

I am living in Canada until I finish my masters and then want to shift to the USA.

I know I have to fill out the I-131 form to extend my re-entry permit, but I have read that we can only fill this form from inside the united states.

So, is it allowed for me to go to the closest Canada/USA bridge, fill it out, and then head back to Canada, or do I have to stay in USA for a certain amount of time before I go back to Canada.

Last time I went to the states was in 2019 but due to Covid I have been putting it off, and so just wondering if anyone can share their experience with this.

Thanks

At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...
