Baby23 1 Posted July 30, 2013 I think your asking, if your able to work using an ITIN? No that is illegal. I know most employer recognize that an ITIN most of the time starts with 9, and won't allow you to use it. The only things you should use your ITIN for is to open a bank account, file taxes, and school three most common. You have do have the right to ask for an ITIN to the IRS when you are going to do your taxes the person whom is helping you will file an application and you receive it by mail then you finish filing your taxes.

Thnks, I didn't know that. I am classified as an independent contractor and they asked for my itin on the contract. For taxes how do I file for the ITIN ? The whole process is kind of confusing.

Baby23 1 Posted July 30, 2013 To be honest I'm not familiar with the contractor part. But if they asked you for the ITIN maybe that's all they need. Do you have one of those places that do taxes business near you? If you do just take your birth certificate & your I.D, and they will fill it out for you I don't think it's over $30.
