ITIN number application and renewal
No Social Security Number? We can help you get an Individual Tax Identification Number (ITIN), so you can file your taxes. Plus, at H&R Block, ITIN applications or renewals are free when you file your U.S. federal income tax return at participating locations.
Applying for and using an ITIN
If you’re working and earning money in the United States, but you don’t have and don’t qualify for a Social Security Number, you’ll need an ITIN. You can apply for an ITIN tax ID for you, your spouse, and your dependents when you prepare your tax return with us. Here’s what an ITIN can help you do.
File taxes and claim benefits
File your taxes and claim tax benefits for qualifying dependents.
Receive a tax refund
Get a refund of income tax withholding from the IRS, if you qualify.
Open a bank account
Open a bank account or apply for a mortgage loan, if you qualify.
Renewing your ITIN
An expired ITIN could delay your tax refund and make you ineligible for certain tax credits until your ITIN is renewed. With tax professionals and Certified Acceptance Agents (CAAs) nationwide, H&R Block can guide you through the ITIN renewal process.
