What is ITIN Number?

Anyone who earns money from the US through business or through any other source needs to file taxes according to US Law. This means whether you are a US resident or non-resident you will require an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) if you are not qualified to acquire a Social Security Number SSN number. If you are confused as to where to get ITIN, then let us tell you that you need to approach to Internal Revenue Service. They are responsible for processing and collecting taxes in the United States and they are the ultimate source that issues ITINs.

Your ITIN number is used to process taxes; it is a nine-digit number where the initial number is 9 and the final digit is either 7 or 8. Having an ITIN guarantees that you are following all US tax regulations. Additionally, it gives the IRS a mechanism to quickly process tax return paperwork and payments that you make.

Who needs an ITIN?

If you do not have an SSN or are not eligible for one but must file a federal income tax return, you must obtain an ITIN. You must fit one of the following criteria to be eligible for an ITIN:

  • Foreign national who resides in the US and files taxes here
  • Foreign non-residents seeking a tax treaty benefit
  • Non-resident foreign national or resident foreign national who a U.S. citizen cannot claim as a dependent on a U.S. tax return

Tips to complete Form W-7

Once you have a copy of Form W-7, fill out all the necessary fields. The black ink can be used to handprint the required information, or you can type it. Typewritten or stamped signatures typically aren’t acceptable, so if you choose to enter your information on the form, sign it personally in black ink.

The information that must be provided on Form W-7 is rather simple. This is among its components:

  • You must check the box next to the justification for applying. You must provide your relationship to the person and their SSN/ITIN if you choose “Dependent of U.S. Citizen/Resident Foreign National.” Similar information must be provided if “Spouse of U.S. Citizen/Resident Foreign National” is chosen.
  • Your full name, first, middle (if any), and last. You must input your birth name if it has changed; for instance, if you married and adopted your spouse’s last name, you would enter your maiden name.
  • Your street address, apartment number, rural route number, city or town, state or province, and nation, as well as your zip code or postal code, at your mailing address in the United States.
  • Your international postal address, which includes your street address, apartment number, rural route number, city or town, state or province, and country.
  • Birth information, including your gender, city or state of birth, country of birth, and birth date.
  • Information on your citizenship, foreign tax identification number, and the sort of U.S. visa you have, together with its number and expiration date, are all important.
  • Additionally, you must decide which identity documents and pertinent data that go with them you will be sending. If yes, you must state the number and the name that the ITIN or IRSN was issued. You must also state whether you have ever had an ITIN or an Internal Revenue Service Number (IRSN).
  • Please list the name of your college, university, or employer, along with the city, state, and duration of your stay in the United States, if applicable.
  • Once you have included all the required details, sign and date the application and include a contact phone number.

What supporting documents can be used with an ITIN?

You must submit supporting evidence with your ITIN application to verify your identification and your status as a foreigner. The following lists the admissible documents, their supporting documents, and the functions each one serves:

  • Passport (standalone document for foreigners)
  • Photo identification from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)
  • Visa issued by the U.S. Department of State
  • Military ID from a foreign country
  • National identity card currently in use
  • Voter registration card for foreigners

When to apply for an ITIN?

Fill out an application for an ITIN so that it may be sent in with your tax return when you’re ready to file your first federal income tax return. Do keep in mind, however, that if you are exempt from filing a tax return because you qualify for one of the exceptions, you can submit Form W-7 and the necessary supporting documentation as soon as you can after proving your eligibility.

ITIN applications can be submitted at any time, but if you file your federal tax return after April 15 and submit Form W-7, you may be required to pay interest, penalties, or both. As a result, filing your federal tax return and Form W-7 before April 15 may save you from this legal obligation.

When will I receive my ITIN?

Although there isn’t a specific timeframe, you should typically get your ITIN two to three months (12 to sixteen weeks) after submitting your application, tax returns, and other required supporting documents. The IRS will analyse the information to assess your eligibility after receiving your application, tax returns, and supporting papers. The IRS will send you a letter with your ITIN if it is decided that you qualify for one. Call the IRS at 800-829-1040 to check on the progress of your application if two months have passed since you submitted it and you have not received your ITIN or any other information from the IRS.
