Mailing address for your 1040/1040NR tax return when you got an ITIN application submission for the first time
Are you applying for ITIN for your spouse or your dependent's children and filing a 1040 US tax return or if you are a foreign national applying for US tax ID to submit a 1040NR tax return?
The ITIN or US Tax ID application process is required for non-citizens who aren’t eligible to receive a Social Security number but need to file a federal tax return with the IRS for income from US sources. The application process is done by completing Form W7.
A common scenario includes:
A foreign person with United States-based income filing 1040Nonresident Federal Tax Return [ Eg. USA based Rental income, Partners with K-1/Form 8805 income, LLC income, FIRPTA tax reclaim, Gambling winnings tax reclaim, etc]
US citizen/resident alien with foreign spouse filing joint 1040 tax return with Married filing Jointly status.
US citizen/resident alien with foreign child claimed as dependent on 1040 tax return with Married filing Jointly status or Head of Household status. Please note for the dependent child a 183-day test in the USA and medical or school records are required as new conditions.
Would just completing Form W7 would suffice to get ITIN or US TAX ID?
Nope, Completion of Form W7 is only a small part of the ITIN application process, The applicant must ensure the application is completed correctly all the supporting documents are enclosed with the ITIN application and most importantly the the passport and ID documents are certified by IRS approved certified acceptance agents.
The ITIN office will only accept documents certified by approved agents. You can also apply through one of the two types of acceptance agents authorized by the IRS. They are .,
Acceptance Agent (AA).
When the above criteria are not met ITIN application will be rejected.
