ITIN'S

No Social Security Number? No Problem! As a Certified Acceptance Agent (CAA), we can help you apply for an ITIN so you can file your tax return-without surrendering your passport or legal document. It’s the fastest and safest way possible.

Cruz Tax & Associates we have been helping immigrants in the United States that don’t qualify for a Social Security Number obtain their Individual Taxpayer Identification Number the fastest and safest way possible.

On behalf of the IRS, we as Certifying Acceptance Agents (CAA) assist non-resident aliens, and taxpayers of foreign nations (who are not eligible to get a Social Security Number) to obtain an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), from the Internal Revenue Service.

As an IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA), we submit the W-7 Form, the supporting documentation, which consists of the; persons tax return, and the required personal identification documents. We will also complete a certificate to prove the applicant’s identity and foreign standing. We then submit all the paperwork to the Internal Revenue Service ITIN department for processing.

Advantages of using ours Services as an IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA):

• We will work with you during the entire ITIN application process.

• We will fill all application documents in an accurate manner based on the information you provide to us.

• We will certify your identification documents (passports, birth certificates, etc.). We sign a “Certificate of Accuracy” (COA) for you. COA is a certification done by a CAA that states we have reviewed the supporting documentation to prove the ITIN applicant’s “identity” and “foreign status”; to the best of our knowledge the documents are complete, authentic, and accurate.

• You’ll avoid mailing your original documents to the Internal Revenue Service. You won’t have to visit your consulate to get a certified copy of your passport.

• From our experience as an IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA), we have seen that the IRS processes ITIN number applications much faster through a CAA office than if the ITIN application that is submitted by the ITIN applicant directly. As an IRS Certifying Acceptance Agents (CAA) we have an exclusive direct phone number with the ITIN Number office of the IRS. We will communicate with you and the IRS during the entire process. If any inconvenience arrives with the ITIN application; our office will take care of any issue arising with the preparation of the application. If you try to communicate directly with the IRS about your ITIN application issue, it may take you a very long time to resolve the problem.

What is the difference between an IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA) and an Acceptance Agent (AA)?

Both the Acceptance Agent and the IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA) help qualified people obtain an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), however, there are two main differences.

First, an IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA) will certify the individual’s identification documents. An Acceptance Agent is not able to certify documents for ITIN number applications. People applying for an ITIN with an Acceptance Agent need to submit their original identification documents and mail them out to the IRS by mail along with the W-7 application.

Secondly, an IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA) will receive a letter (along with the applicant) when the ITIN is assigned. The Acceptance Agent will not receive the information when the ITIN is assigned.
