What is an ITIN?

An Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) is a number issued by United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to enable the filing and processing of a tax return for individuals who do not have and are not eligible for social security numbers. An ITIN number looks similar to a social security number in so far as it consists of nine digits such as (985-45-7984) If a person does not have a social security number and is required or otherwise wants to file a tax return, the IRS will issue a ITINs to the taxpayer and any dependents that they are claiming on their tax return.

What can I use an ITIN number for?

The IRS creates ITIN numbers to for people to comply with the various United States tax laws. They are given to individuals without concern for the recipient’s immigration status.

 It also gives the IRS a way to process tax returns and account for the payments for individuals who are not eligible to receive Social Security numbers. They are issued regardless of immigration status, because both resident and nonresident aliens may have a U.S. filing or reporting requirement under the Internal Revenue Code. ITINs do not serve any purpose other than federal tax reporting.

An ITIN does not:

• Authorize work in the U.S.
• Provide eligibility for Social Security benefits
• Qualify a dependent for Earned Income Tax Credit Purposes

An ITIN does not authorize a person to work in the U.S. or provide eligibility for Social Security benefits, nor does an ITIN provide a person with immigration status. However a person can invest in or own a business in the United States and often times use the ITIN number to obtain tax registration certificates and licenses. New York State issues the following type of business registrations and licenses to individuals using ITIN number as a substitute for a social security number on the applications and registrations.

New York Corporation

New York City Department of Consumer Affairs

New York State Sales Tax – Certificate of Authority- This enables the business to collect sales tax and remit the funds to New York State department of Taxation and Finance.

Who uses an ITIN to file tax returns?
Individuals who do not have a social security number this group would include the following:

Undocumented immigrants

Illegal Aliens

Dependents of undocumented immigrants

Individuals who are lawfully present but do not as of yet have a work a Visa status that permits them to have a social security number. Examples of these include the spouse and dependents of immigrants with employment visas, student visa holders.

Companies that pay individuals more than $600 per year are required to collect the ITIN number of the person and issue a 1099 and withhold taxes.   

Does the IRS share your ITIN information with other government agencies?

Will USCIS, ICE or other immigration officials use the information that I give the IRS as a way to find me and deport me?

No the IRS does not provide information to other agencies for the purpose of mass deportation of undocumented immigrants.

Furthermore Joe Biden wants to give citizenship to undocumented illegal aliens
 

The IRS general mission is to collect taxes and they want individuals to file tax returns without fear of being arrested. In order to have people feel confident that the y will not be arrested for filing their taxes, they have created privacy laws and internal government rules and procedure that generally prevent the IRS from sharing information obtained from tax returns, filed by ITIN  holders, with other government agencies, such as immigration departments. The IRS has issued more than 20 million ITIN so undocumented aliens do not have to fear mass roundups and deportations if they obtain an ITIN number and file their taxes. Many democratic politicians such as Hillary Clinton have advocated for a path to citizenship for undocumented aliens that have obtained their ITIN number and filed their taxes for more than 3 years.  

Does a ITIN holder have to renew their ITIN?

The IRS will send you a notice of tax due and a letter explaining the above information and a demand that you renew your ITIN number.
