OUR MISSION
We help individuals who qualify for an ITIN navigate the process with confidence. Our goal is simple: to make tax compliance accessible, accurate, and worry-free for every person we serve.
An Individual Taxpayer Identification Number is a 9-digit tax processing number issued by the IRS to people who need to file U.S. taxes but aren't eligible for a Social Security number.
An ITIN lets you report your income and file your taxes. Your tax returns can also serve as a record of your work history and physical presence in the U.S., and some banks accept an ITIN to open accounts.
No. An ITIN is for federal tax purposes only. It does not change your immigration status or authorize you to work.
Not if you work with a Certifying Acceptance Agency like us. We can verify your identity documents so you keep your originals. Some dependent documents have different rules, and we'll tell you exactly what applies to your family.
Yes. If an ITIN isn't used on a federal tax return at least once in three consecutive years, it expires. We can help you renew it.
Book a virtual appointment and we'll review your situation by video, give you a document checklist, and walk you through the safest way to complete your application.
