You mean Bridging Open Work Permit? You need at least AOR for that. Some on this forum claim that they have gotten it without AOR though.

How did you get a file number though? Is that your CEC application file number?

Yes, you can apply

To be eligible for a bridging open work permit, the applicants must:
Currently be in Canada;
Have valid status on a work permit that is due to expire within 4 months;
Have received confirmation from CIC that their permanent resident application is eligible under one of the four Economic Classes (FSWP, CEC, PNP and FSTP), and;
Have made an application for an open work permit.
 
honeysingh, OB485 has expired, please refer to OB485A
