An ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) is required to file U.S. taxes if you don't qualify for a Social Security number. Most Mount Sterling ITIN applicants are non-resident aliens, resident aliens without SSN eligibility, dependents of U.S. citizens, or spouses on certain visa categories. The application requires Form W-7 plus a tax return — and the documentation requirements are strict. We've processed hundreds of ITIN applications for the Columbus immigrant community.

Do I need to send my original passport to the IRS?+
Not if you use an IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent — which we are. We verify your original passport in our office and submit certified copies. This means you keep your passport and don't risk losing it in IRS mail processing for 11+ weeks.
Can I get an ITIN without filing a tax return?+
In most cases, no — Form W-7 must be filed with a tax return. There are limited exceptions (treaty benefit claims, certain mortgage applications, third-party reporting requirements), but the standard pathway is application + return submitted together.
How long does the IRS take to issue an ITIN?+
Current IRS processing time is 7–11 weeks during normal periods, and can stretch to 14+ weeks during tax season peak (January–April). Your tax return is processed simultaneously, so any refund is issued after ITIN approval.
