01Complete
Form W-7

STEP 01 Download Form W-7, Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number. You will need to select a reason for needing the ITIN, such as filing a U.S. tax return, being the dependent/spouse of a U.S. citizen, or meeting another exception.

STEP 02 Form W-7 cannot be submitted on its own; it must accompany a valid U.S. federal income tax return (like Form 1040 or 1040-NR). Leave the Social Security number section blank on your tax return.

STEP 03 You must provide proof of your identity and foreign status. A valid passport is the only document that can serve as both proof of identity and foreign status on its own. If you do not submit a passport, you will need to provide at least two other documents (such as a visa, national ID, or birth certificate) with at least one containing a photograph. Documents must be original or certified copies from the issuing agency.

STEP 04

You can submit your W-7 application in three ways:

By mail — Mail your application, tax return, and original documents to the address specified in the Form W-7 Instructions. Original documents will be returned to you within 60 days.

In person (U.S.) — You can avoid mailing original documents by scheduling an appointment at an authorized IRS Taxpayer Assistance Center to verify your documents in person.

Using a CAA — You can use an IRS-authorized CAA who can verify and certify your documents, which allows you to keep your original documents. You can find a local CAA on the IRS Acceptance Agent Program page.

The Application Cycle

Key points to remember

💡 An ITIN does not authorize you to work in the U.S.
💡 Processing usually takes about 7 weeks (9–11 weeks during peak season or for applications filed from abroad), in line with IRS guidance.
💡 Passport alone is sufficient in most cases. Some dependents' passports also need a U.S. date of entry or a supporting document.
💡 An ITIN expires if not used for three consecutive tax years.
💡 Using a CAA means your original documents stay with you.
💡 Submit certified documents, not photocopies.
💡 Attach the federal tax return.
💡 Renew an active ITIN before filing taxes.
💡 Apply for an SSN when eligible.
💡 Complete and verify all Form W-7 entries.
