the problem with that is that applying for TRV is 50/50 chances ...

My husband has a open work permit visa stamping based on my past work permit - I am a recent PR. I wish they let him use that visa in case of emergency as US immigration situation is not good for H1 holders and he has a renewal coming up. Once I have AOR I think it may be easy to talk to IRCC about the possibility. The last time I talked to them they said they need some sort of case for him and my representative form to talk to me about it. Hope AOR comes this year. Meanwhile trying for visitor visa doesn’t hurt.
 
Anyone here called ircc to get a temporary file number?
Please tell me more about this temp. File number. What is it?

It’s just a temporary file number that starts with XF000... that you get from IRCC, meaning they have opened your application and assigned a temp number. It’ll also be your future application number, the “X” will drop. I know lots of March - June applicants have gotten it so I was wondering if july/August applicants have tried as well?

How could we get one? I applied end of August for my spouse and have not got anything in postal mail.

2 then 1 then 0 after you hear them giving you options

Last time I called them a month or so back, they said I will get application number in couple of months. I am going to submit a representative form through webform and then call them. I had mailed one but doesn’t seem like they read it yet and wouldn’t respond to me over webform.

Sounds good. Let me know the outcome
 
No it’s not an AOR i had to call them. It’s just a temp number for a peace of mind that my application is there!
Thanks for letting me know. That’s very helpful.
