ITIN SERVICES
INDIVIDUAL TAX IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
If you don’t qualify for a Social Security number, but need to file your taxes or earned money in the United States (via cash or check), TaxBiz & Books can help you apply for an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (also known as an ITIN, PIN, Tax ID or Taxpayer ID) and file any and all pending tax returns.
Why You Need an ITIN if you don’t have a Social Security Number:
- It serves as your identification number for filing your federal and state taxes
- It allows you to get a refund from your income withheld by the IRS, if you qualify
- It allows you to file your taxes and claim dependents you support in the United States, Mexico or Canada
- With an ITIN you may be able to open a bank account or apply for a mortgage loan
Applying for a ITIN number
The Individual Taxpayer Identification Number is an important tool for many people.
The IRS issues individual taxpayer identification numbers (ITINs) to people who need to file taxes, but who do not qualify for social security numbers. The IRS will also issue ITINs to dependents who can be claimed on a tax return, but who do not qualify for social security numbers. But to obtain an ITIN, an application must be filed, along with documents that prove the taxpayer’s citizenship and identity, and a federal income tax return. However, the process can be difficult, but TaxBiz & Books, a Certified Acceptance Agent (CAA), will streamline the application process and here are a few ways we can help.
CAA- Certified Acceptance Agent
Apply for an ITIN and keep your original documents. With this service, you can apply for an ITIN and have our Certified Acceptance Agent verify your supporting original documents in our office. The benefit to you is that you can keep the supporting original documentation, and our CAA will submit notarized copies of these documents, along with your ITIN application and federal income tax returns, to the IRS for you.
Applying for an ITIN for you, your spouse, and your dependents, can be completed when you prepare your federal income tax return with us, at TaxBiz & Books.
