Common questions
What documents do I need to apply for an ITIN?
A valid foreign passport is the most widely accepted document. If a passport isn’t available, a combination of two other documents showing identity and foreign status may work. We review your specific situation before you gather anything.
How long does it take to receive an ITIN?
The IRS typically processes ITIN applications within 7–11 weeks. Applying with a Certifying Acceptance Agent can avoid sending original documents to the IRS.
My ITIN expired. Can I still file?
Yes — you file your tax return and renew your ITIN at the same time using Form W-7. We handle both.
Why Blue Star
The ITIN application requires a tax return to be filed at the same time as the W-7. We handle both — in English and Spanish — making the process clear for our bilingual clients.
