An ITIN is required for individuals who must submit an income tax return but do not have and are unable to obtain a United State's social security number. The W-7 Form can be obtained through the I.R.S' website or by obtaining the documents through a local tax office. Before submitting a W-7 Form, you must ensure that you are not eligible for a social security number. If you are eligible, you must apply for a social security number before using the W-7 Form. 1. First select the reason for requesting an ITIN. If you are applying for one for any reason other than claiming a tax treaty benefit, you must also submit a standard tax return with your W-7. 2. For line 1, state your full name and any previous name given at birth. 3. Put your full address on line 2, to provide the IRS with a mailing address. If you have a P.O.
