Buffalo visa office or any other visa office does not issue a new file number if the application is incomplete. Only when they receive a complete application with all of the required documents, they create a file on their database for the applicant, issue a new file number, and send an acknowledgment of receipt letter to the applicant (AOR) confirming the receipt of his application and stating that a file has been created to the applicant.
If the application is incomplete or missing any documents, it will be returned back to the applicant with an explanation letter to resend the application with the missing documents. (there are some exceptions in that regard such as missing police clearance documents) in that case, they accept the application, issue the file number, and ask for those missing police clearance documents in a later stage after they start processing the application.
