In passing and while

Could you help me with this ? please

I'll reschedule his meeting to start when yours ends. That way you'll be able to see him even if it is in passing./ for a split second.

I'm staying at my moms house while I look for a place.

Isn't thie while clause supposed to be the continuous?

thank you
