今天去了趟IRS(BOSTON)

xumaUID: 161595

写出来免的大家象我一样多跑冤枉路.
我去那里主要想公正我的护照什么的证件,
因为填税表,要申请一个ITIN,需要提供公证的证件这一步.
到了IRS(绿线地铁govenment center左边JFK builiding Room 775)
进JFK building要象机场一样安检,到了里面领个号,等着叫号,
类似签证的时候,有电子牌显示你几号办公室.
等了几分钟,比较快.告知他们只负责把关护照的真实有效性,就是说你得把w-7, tax return, 两个表都带上,然后他们检查你的护照是不是真的,然后一切OK了,他们帮你寄到IRS规定的申请ITIN的地方,你就可以不用公证了,当天能带回自己的护照回家.
如果你要公证就得去另外一个BUILIDING,(没听清楚名字:(( ),然后拿着这个工整过后的证件和两个表,自己寄到该的地方即可.

因为填税表,要申请一个ITIN,需要提供公证的证件这一步.
这是什么???没有听说过呢???

xumaUID: 161595

据说夫妻联合报税F2得申请个ITIN,要不你没法报
我打电话给H&R block,他们也要求我有ITIN才帮我填表,价格不贵,200之内吧,我还没去
看下面我转的ITIN


Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITIN)

Individuals without employment authorization from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS) and/or who have no taxable income (e.g. dependents in F-2, J-2 without EAD, H-4, or O-3 visa status) are not eligible for a SSN. They will, however, need an official identification number to complete an income tax return. ITINs are intended for tax use only and can be obtained by filing Form W-7 with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). An ITIN does not represent permission to work and is not proof of U.S. citizenship or permanent residence. Examples of individuals who need to apply for an ITIN:

Nonresident aliens not eligible for a SSN who are required to file a U.S. tax return or who are filing a tax return only to claim a refund.


Alien spouses and dependents who are claimed as exemptions on U.S. tax returns but who are not eligible to obtain a SSN.
Do not apply for an ITIN if you have a SSN or are eligible for a SSN. If you obtain an ITIN and subsequently are granted work authorization from CIS, you will need to apply for a SSN. Use the SSN on all future tax returns, and notify the IRS so they can retire your ITIN.

The International Scholars Office has a limited supply of ITIN application forms (Form W-7). They may also be downloaded from the IRS website or obtained at the Boston IRS office.


To apply for an ITIN for yourself and/or a family member:

Complete Form W-7. Don’t forget to sign it and date it.

Include the original, completed tax return for which the ITIN is needed. If you are applying for more than one ITIN for the same tax form (for example, for a spouse and a child), attach all Forms W-7 to the same tax form.


Get certified copies of all of immigration documents for each applicant, including the identification page(s) of the passport, the entry visa stamp, the front and back of the Form I-94 (white card stapled into passports), and any other appropriate documentation (Form DS-2019, I-20, I-797, etc.).


Do not send original immigration documents to the IRS. To have your copies certified, take your original documents and photocopies to Boston IRS in the John F. Kennedy Federal Building, Room 775. [By T, take the green line to the Government Center stop. When you go upstairs, the JFK Building will be across the plaza on your left]. The office is open from 8:00 am to 4:30 pm, Monday – Friday. You will receive an ITIN in four to six weeks.


Mail these items to:

Internal Revenue Service
Philadelphia Service Center
ITIN Unit
P.O. Box 447
Bensalem, PA 19020
Do not mail these items to the mailing address listed in the instructions for your tax form.

More information about Social Security numbers and ITINs can be found on the Social Security Administration website and on the Internal Revenue Service website.

就是说用来反税的马?我老公怎么没有说过呢???:(

第一次听说

xumaUID: 161595

可能离4.15还早,不着急
你问问他,
反正学校国际学生办公室的人是这么说的

selenashen79UID: 166279

今天不死心又和lg去了申请SSN的building一次，被拒了:(
就是昨天在家老公在填网上填税表的时候上面要求有我的SSN才可以联合退税(我的学费)，这么巧回来就看到这篇文章，呵呵，太有用处了，谢啦:)

selenashen79UID: 166279

有个问题，那你申请ITIN时递上去的tax return是file seperately还是file jointly的呢？

xumaUID: 161595

我们是一起报的税
好运!

poohsungUID: 66314

好像只有按照resident报税，结了婚才可以jointly，而我们必须在美国居住5年以上才按照resident

selenashen79UID: 166279

请问xuma:

"Include the original, completed tax return for which the ITIN is needed. If you are applying for more than one ITIN for the same tax form (for example, for a spouse and a child), attach all Forms W-7 to the same tax form."

这里面的[B]tax return[/B] 是指dependent的么？

你们申报主要是申报还是想多点refund呢？我们在taxactonline.com上填的时候需要填我的SSN，如果没有就进行不下去，也就是refund会少些(具体多少就不知道)。我的理解是你们拿到ITIN后然后给H&R BLOCK然后他们帮你们申报税然后再得到refund，对吗？(嘻嘻，不要嫌偶罗嗦)

ShushuUID: 159898

H&R,好贵的哦，还不如给我帮你报啦，呵呵，收40块~ :D

xumaUID: 161595

selenashen79说的没错,我们是打算这么办的,
tax-return是我们夫妻两人共用的一张税表,我不单独报税了
shushu的主意不错! 可惜远水解不了近可啊,
我们的帐比较复杂,要不也不会要专门找人弄了,
虽然我也喜欢肥水不留外人田
poohsung说的我不清楚,不过你说的条件我们都符合
