My application was delivered on March 19th and i was also told that my application is not in the system yet. I know someone whose application was received on March 13th and he got a temporary file number . I think applications received in the first 2 weeks of March or so were put in the system with the temporary file number.

So I called them they said they are still receiving Applications in February. I told that sure, you can do whatever, I sent my file and it arrived in March. I told them I know some people in March have got temporary application numbers, can you check if my application is in your system? They asked my details and my spouse details and then gave me a temporary application number.

That wasn't enough for me, I needed to double confirm. I then sent a web form asking about my situation, didn't tell them about temporary application number, I got a reply back saying they have received the application and when they have reviewed it in the order they received it and when they deem its a complete application an email will be sent out.

So if you are calling them, and they say processing only Jan, Feb, March whatever, I would suggest to give your details and ask the agent to check if they have something in the file for you. Until now, not knowing anything, I thought worst case my application was lost and I would have to resend it (even though it was signed for by some Adam), now I have temporary number which means someone opened my file, its somewhere, its better than nothing I guess.

My partner is coming to Canada mid September under the family reunification exemption. He is visa exempt as he is from Australia. We only booked a one way ticket as we plan to keep him here as a visitor until PR is processed. Does anybody know if it will be an issue that we did not book a return flight? What do you suggest we should do?

I suggest to book a flexible return flight ticket just in case they ask at the border when your partner is coming back. I don't think it's a good idea to say he'll stay there until having the PR processed. Being a flexible ticket you could change it or ask for a refund after he is in Canada.

This is a good answer because at least they said they are reviewing your documents. I've heard some of the workers returned back (hopefully). Could you tell me please when was your application received at their offices?

It might be a good idea to call again, one month has passed and if your application appears now it could mean they are starting to work again
