What is an ITIN Number?

An ITIN number, or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, is a unique, nine-digit number issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to individuals who are required to have a taxpayer identification number, but who do not have, and are not eligible to obtain, a Social Security number (SSN).

ITINs are issued regardless of immigration status, and are used to identify individuals and their dependents when they file taxes. They're also used to claim certain tax credits, such as the Child Tax Credit and the American Opportunity Tax Credit. In general, if you're a foreign national, a non-resident alien, or a U.S. resident with foreign income, you may need an ITIN number to file your taxes.

ITIN Number Application

Applying for an ITIN number can be a complex and time-consuming process. The IRS has specific requirements that must be met, and the application form, Form W-7, must be completed correctly and accompanied by the required documentation. At INFINITY, we understand the process and can guide you through it, step by step.

To apply for an ITIN number, you will need to submit the following documents:

• Proof of identity, such as a passport or national identification card
• Proof of foreign status, such as a visa or resident alien card
• A tax return, if you're required to file one

It is important to provide accurate and complete information and documentation, as processing times can be delayed if the IRS needs additional information or finds errors in your application. By working with us, you can feel confident that your application is in good hands, and that your ITIN number will be issued as quickly as possible.

ITIN Number Renewal

An ITIN number that has not been used on a tax return for five consecutive years will become expired, and will need to be renewed before it can be used again. In addition, starting from the 1st of january 2021, the IRS is implementing a new policy where ITINs will expire after 9 years of non-use, and individuals will need to renew it before they can file their taxes. This means that if you haven't used your ITIN number on a tax return in the past five (or 9) years, you'll need to renew it before you can file your taxes again. The renewal process is similar to the initial application process, but there are a few additional requirements you'll need to meet.

To renew an ITIN number, you will need to submit the following documents:

• A completed Form W-7
• Proof of identity, such as a passport or national identification card
• Proof of foreign status, such as a visa or resident alien card
• Original or certified copies of any expired ITIN documentation
• A tax return, if you're required to file one and if you have used the ITIN before

It is important to renew your ITIN before the expiration date, as an expired ITIN number cannot be used on a tax return. Our team at INFINITY can help you ensure that you have all the necessary documentation and help you with the paperwork and submitting your application, so that you can avoid delays or errors.
