Get Your ITIN

An ITIN can help you build credit, file taxes, and more.

(KCAO does not help with applying for or renewing ITINS. See below for certifying agencies)

What is an ITIN?

ITIN stands for Individual Taxpayer Identification Number. An ITIN works similar to a Social Security Number when you file your taxes each year. If you are working in the United States, you have to pay taxes, regardless of your immigration status. An ITIN is not a work permit.

An ITIN is solely for tax purposes and does not affect your immigration status. It’s a safe and legal way to meet your tax obligations.

Already have an ITIN? Keep it active by renewing it now. Don’t miss out on valuable tax benefits.

ITIN holders may be eligible for hundreds of dollars in cash-back California tax credits.

Use your ITIN to qualify for valuable tax credits like CalEITC and YCTC. Depending on your income and family size, you could receive a significant cash-back credit to use as you need—whether it’s for groceries, bills, or other essentials. Tax credits can either reduce what you owe or increase your refund, putting extra money in your pocket.

Certifying Acceptance Agents (CAAs) can verify your identity and foreign status, then submit the tax form W-7 to apply for an ITIN for you.
