The face of the moon was in shadow

Almost before we knew it, we had left the ground. All their equipment and instruments are alive.Mist enveloped the ship three hours out from port. The spectacle before us was indeed sublime.A red flair silhouetted the jagged edge of a wing.

  • —If you're self-employed: your income and expense records

01 · How it works

From zero to a filed return.

1

We review your case

We check whether you need an ITIN, whether it has to be renewed, and what income has to be reported. You get the price before we start.

2

We prepare everything

We fill out the W-7 and your return together, and double-check names and dates — that's where the IRS rejects filings.

3

We file and follow up

We submit to the IRS and let you know when your ITIN or refund arrives. We keep a copy of everything.

Tax season fills up fast.

02 · Frequently asked questions

Tax season questions.

Can I file taxes without a Social Security number?+

Yes. You file with an ITIN, a number the IRS issues so you can pay taxes. It is not a work permit and has nothing to do with immigration status.

How long does an ITIN take?+

The IRS usually takes several weeks from the day it receives the application, and longer in peak season. That's why it's better to start before January, not in April.

Do I have to mail my original passport to the IRS?+

As acceptance agents we certify your passport here, so you don't mail the original. We review it, issue the certification, and you keep your passport.

My ITIN is old — does it still work?+

ITINs that go unused for several years expire. If yours lapsed, it has to be renewed along with the return. We check it for free.

Can I claim my children?+

It depends on whether they qualify as dependents and whether they have an ITIN or SSN. Bring their birth certificates and passports and we'll look at it case by case.

I get paid in cash. Can I still file?+

Yes, and it's worth doing. Reporting your income builds a record that helps with credits and future filings. We'll help you organize the numbers.

What if I didn't file last year?+

Prior years can still be filed. Bring what you have for that year and we'll bring you current.

Do I need an appointment?+

Either way works. In peak season it's better to book on WhatsApp so you don't wait.
