Take your time

We are not a government agency. We help you understand and prepare. Submit Form W-7 to the IRS: mail it with your federal tax return and identity documents to the IRS ITIN Operation, apply through an IRS-authorized Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA), or make an appointment at an IRS Taxpayer Assistance Center (TAC).

Fill in W-7 with the guided helper

This form has one helper: plain-language questions, explanations in your language, and a review sheet. Your answers stay on this device (and in your account if you are signed in). When you are done, come back here to record how you submitted it.
