Smart, Reliable Support for Your Tax Needs

An Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) is a tax processing number issued by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to individuals who are required to have a U.S. taxpayer identification number but are not eligible for a Social Security Number (SSN). It is used only for federal tax purposes.

You typically need an ITIN if you must file or be listed on a U.S. federal tax return and you are not eligible for an SSN. This may include:

• Nonresident aliens required to file a U.S. tax return.
• Resident aliens (under the substantial presence test) who cannot get an SSN.
• Dependents or spouses of U.S. citizens or resident aliens.
• Dependents or spouses of nonresident aliens on certain visas.

To apply for an ITIN, you must complete Form W-7 (Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number), attach the required identification documents (such as a valid passport or other accepted documents), and usually include a U.S. federal tax return or proof that you qualify for an exception. With TaxGov, we proceed the ITIN with a Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA).
