What Is an ITIN?

An Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) is a tax processing number issued by the IRS to taxpayers who are required to file a federal tax return or meet a tax obligation but are not eligible for a Social Security Number. An ITIN is used for tax filing purposes only. It does not authorize work in the United States, provide eligibility for Social Security benefits, or change a person's immigration status. ATDS does not issue ITINs and does not control whether the IRS approves an application. We help you understand the requirements, prepare the application materials that fit your situation, and connect your ITIN to your tax filing once it is issued.

Common Needs We Address

Every situation is different. Here are some of the needs ATDS regularly helps clients resolve.

Understanding what an ITIN is for

An ITIN is a tax processing number, not a work permit or immigration document. We explain what it does and does not do so you know what to expect.

Preparing a complete application

An ITIN application requires specific forms and supporting documents. We help you understand what is needed and prepare the materials that fit your situation.

Connecting your ITIN to your tax filing

An ITIN is usually requested so you can file a federal return. We coordinate your ITIN application with your tax preparation so the two line up.

Renewing an expired ITIN

Some ITINs expire and must be renewed before they can be used to file. We help you understand whether renewal applies to your situation.

Knowing what to expect from the IRS

We explain the application process and typical timelines in plain language. We do not guarantee approval or a specific timeline, since those depend on the IRS.
