The same everywhere

  • The interview. The IRS lets acceptance agents interview applicants by video.IRS Your interview is on a live video call. No mailing your original passport to the IRS. We'll tell you exactly how to get your documents to us.
  • The timing. The IRS says to allow about 9 to 11 weeks when you apply from overseas or during tax season. Timing depends on the IRS.IRS
  • The cost. The IRS charges nothing for an ITIN, and agents set their own fees.IRS Nolly.com charges US$199 for a Standard ITIN application and US$265 for Priority, one time.
