How to Apply for an ITIN

Each person who requires an ITIN must file a separate Form W-7/W-7(SP) and provide supporting identification documentation.

Form W-7/W-7(SP) must be completed and attached to a U.S. federal income tax return. The applicant's name must be listed on the Form W-7/W-7(SP) as it appears on the tax return.

Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, must have the same name that appears on the federal tax return submitted with Form W-7.
