ITIN for non residents, explained simply
What is an ITIN?
An ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) is a tax number the IRS gives to a person who has to file US taxes but cannot get a Social Security Number. It belongs to you as a person. Your company has its own number, the EIN.
Do I need an ITIN for my US LLC?
Usually not. You can form a US LLC and get its EIN without an SSN or ITIN, and the LLC files Form 5472 with its EIN. You need an ITIN when you file a personal Form 1040-NR or claim tax treaty benefits in your own name.
How do I apply for an ITIN from outside the US?
You apply with Form W-7. The IRS issues an ITIN only for a federal tax purpose, usually with a tax return attached. A passport is the only document that proves both identity and foreign status on its own. The IRS accepts originals or copies certified by the agency that issued the document; a Certifying Acceptance Agent can verify your passport so you keep the original.
It normally takes 6 to 10 weeks. Sometimes it takes 9 to 11 weeks, which is what the IRS says to allow when you apply from overseas or during the January 15 to April 30 tax season. The IRS does not charge a fee to issue an ITIN.
