Where did you read that?
afaik bolt12 does not solve the offline receive problem. It solves the lack of static invoice problem, but it still needs to ask the receiving node for a bolt11 invoice before it can pay the node. I could be wrong though.
Some of the tech behind bolt12 will help enable offline receives but no, bolt12 as it is does not help receiving offline. It just handles the static invoice part.

Oh, you are right. You will receive the payment when you go online, i believe. But you dont need to be online to provide an invoice. Thats how i understand it.

If your node is offline, does bolt12 allow you to send a payment to that node? I don't think it does. iirc Your node needs to be online to provide the underlying bolt11 invoice as a response to a bolt12 request.
