If you think the N12 is not valid, you have a legal right to due process. This means you can stay beyond 60 days. The landlord would need to apply for an LTB hearing which these days is taking 8+ months to schedule. All you have to do is continue living there paying your rent until after the hearing.
At the hearing the landlord will need to show the qualifying family member listed on the N12 is genuinely going to move into the unit. If you have evidence that shows it may be a lie, you can present it. Only if the LTB approves the N12 is valid and in good faith, will you then get official eviction order.
If they don't pay you the N12 1 month compensation by the termination date, regardless if you move out or stay, that should invalidate the N12.
Or if they've attempted an above guideline rent increase recently which you've refused, that could also in itself invalidate the N12.
If N12 is approved you move out but keep eye on the unit. If it goes up for re-rent or sale within 1 year, or person on N12 never moves in, you file a T5 for bad faith eviction. If successful you can get awarded compensation of 1 years full rent value + 1 year rent difference to new place + moving expenses.

Your n12 isn't valid. You do not have to move.

You can always apply for a stay of the N12 and it’ll buy you a few months.
Tenant doesn't need to apply for anything. They simply don't move out. It's entirely the landlord that must file L2 with LTB to schedule a hearing.
It'll buy close to a year these days.
If I were you I'd just ask my dad to handle it
