The Form W-7

The W-7 form asks for the following information:

• The reason for acquiring the ITIN.
• Name, mailing address, and foreign address of the applicant.
• Applicant’s date of birth and location.
• Country of citizenship.
• Applicant’s foreign tax ID number, if they have one.
• Applicant’s U.S visa number.
• Details to verify the applicant’s identity.

How to apply

The IRS issues ITIN for federal tax purposes only. Having an ITIN doesn’t change a person’s immigration status or residency. One shouldn’t apply for an ITIN if they are not required to file a federal tax return.

To apply, you will have to submit the duly filled W-7 form, tax return, and valid identification of the applicant.

Valid ID forms

If you are applying for an ITIN, you are required to produce an ID that proves your identity and foreign status. You can use a valid passport or a certified copy of the passport to prove you are not a U.S citizen. In case you don’t have a passport, you can submit at least any two documents states below to verify your citizenship and foreign status;

• ID card provided by the U.S Citizenship and Immigration Services.
• Visa
• U.S military ID card.
• The U.S. of foreign driver’s permit.
• Foreign military ID card.
• National ID card with identity information.

• Foreign voter ID card.
• School records for kids under the age of 14.
• Medical records of kids under the age of 6.
• Valid birth certificate.
