That temporary number is issued by NY merely to identify a particular NRA's who do not have an SSN/TIN with the returns he/she filed with NRA or "Applied For" written in place of an SSN/ITIN.
Even if NY accepts this temporary number for tax return filing, you still can't e-file the NYS return with it primarily because NY is a Piggyback/State Only return which must go through the IRS' system and the IRS requires valid SSN/ITIN's for both spouses filing MFJ. It is not a software glitch but hard-coded in the IRS' MeF Schema.
If you must file the MFJ NYS return before an ITIN is issued, your only option would be to file that on paper.
