If you’re cleared for the offset approach you fly the off set approach as published. There’s no “lining up early” you just fly what’s depicted. At some point the offset intercepts the three degree glide path to the runway and then you line up. At KORD if you line up early when cleared the ILS Y 10R, you’ll get, at minimum, an earful from the from the controller.
Like Goldenrivett said, if you want to fly the visual ask for it.
Order 8260.3C Appendix E
”1. Stabilized approach point. This is a design point along the extended centerline of the intended landing runway on the glide slope/glidepath at 500 feet above the runway threshold elevation. It is used to establish a sufficient distance along the extended runway centerline for the visual maneuver after the offset course approach DA to permit the pilots to conform to approved, stabilized approach criteria. The stabilized approach point is not published on the IAP”
