Your ITIN, with an IRS-authorized agent
The ITIN is the number the IRS uses for people who must file taxes and do not have a Social Security number. As a Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA), we can review your documents and prepare your application.
How we help
New application
We prepare Form W-7 and file it together with the return that requires it.
Renewal
An ITIN can expire, for example if it is not used on a return for three years in a row. We help you renew it.
For you and your family
Also for your spouse and dependents who need one.
Document verification
As a CAA, we can verify your identity documents, so in many cases you do not have to send the originals to the IRS.
What we need from you
- A valid passport, or the identity documents the IRS accepts, in original form
- Documents for your spouse and dependents who also need one
- Your income forms (W-2, 1099) and the details to prepare the return
- If it is a renewal, your previous ITIN
Frequently asked questions
Does an ITIN give me work authorization or immigration status?
No. The ITIN is only for meeting tax obligations; it does not authorize work or change your immigration situation.
How long does it take?
The IRS processes it and timing varies by time of year. In the consultation we tell you what to expect, without promising dates we do not control.
Do I need a tax return to apply for an ITIN?
In most cases the application is filed together with a tax return. There are a few exceptions, and we review them in your consultation.
Shall we talk about your case?
The first consultation is free, in English or Spanish.
