FAQ
The short answer is no, you cannot claim yourself as a dependent on your tax return. This is because you are considered to have your own personal exemption. In other words, you cannot claim yourself as a dependent because you are already claiming yourself as a personal exemption.
ITIN. An ITIN, or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, is a tax processing number only available for certain nonresident and resident aliens, their spouses, and dependents who cannot get a Social Security Number (SSN). It is a 9-digit number, beginning with the number "9", formatted like an SSN (NNN-NN-NNNN).
The answer is yes, but you will need to meet certain criteria for applying. Non residents of the US are required to either file a US tax return with the Form W-7 Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number OR meet an exception to filing a US tax return.
ITIN is for tax purposes only; it does not authorize work and cannot be used as an identification number or for any purpose outside the tax system. If you must file a US tax return or are listed on a tax return as a spouse or a dependent and are not eligible to obtain a valid SSN, you must apply for an ITIN number.
You should use your TIN for verification anytime you contact us about your business account. The only exception is if you're the sole proprietor of the business. In this case, please use your SSN instead.
