ITIN Plus charges $99 flat for a complete ITIN application — Form W-7 preparation, passport certification via video call, and direct IRS submission. Most other IRS Certified Acceptance Agents charge $150–$500 for the same service. We operate 100% online, no physical offices, which means lower costs passed directly to you. Verify us at IRS.gov before paying.

The IRS process is identical regardless of which CAA you use. Same Form W-7. Same Austin, TX IRS office. Same 7–11 week timeline. The only difference is how much you pay the middleman.
Verify before you pay: Go to IRS.gov → Acceptance Agent Program → Foreign Countries. ITIN Plus Inc. is listed. Confirm this yourself — a legitimate CAA is always on that list.
Fill out a short form — your name, country, reason for ITIN (Upwork, Amazon, US LLC, etc.). Takes 5 minutes.
One-time flat fee. No recurring charges, no hidden add-ons. Credit card, debit card, or PayPal accepted.
We schedule a 15-minute secure video call. You hold up your passport. Our IRS-certified agent verifies it and creates the certified copy. Your passport stays with you — never mailed anywhere.
We prepare your Form W-7 and submit directly to the IRS ITIN unit in Austin, TX within 1–2 business days.
The IRS mails your ITIN letter to your address. We track it and keep you updated. Average IRS processing: 7–11 weeks.
⚠️ Warning on DIY ITIN: Applying without a CAA requires mailing your original passport to the IRS. Passports have been lost in transit. IRS rejection rate for self-filed W-7 is significantly higher than CAA-submitted applications. The $99 cost is cheap insurance against a rejected application and a lost passport.

Yes. $99 is the total price. It covers Form W-7 preparation, passport certification, and IRS submission. There are no add-on fees, no annual renewal charges, and no surprise charges after payment. If you need ITIN renewal in the future, that is a separate $99 service.
Free ITIN is only available at IRS Taxpayer Assistance Centers (TAC) in the United States, or via VITA/AARP sites if you qualify. These options require you to physically be in the US. If you are outside the US, you need a CAA service. ITIN Plus at $99 is the cheapest legitimate option for non-US residents.
No. The entire process is done remotely via video call. You do not need to travel to the US, visit any embassy, or mail your passport. This is the main advantage of using an IRS Certified Acceptance Agent — we certify your documents so you can apply from anywhere in the world.
You need an ITIN if you earn US-source income (Upwork, Amazon KDP, YouTube, Fiverr) and want to claim tax treaty benefits, file a US tax return to recover withheld taxes, own a US LLC and file Form 5472, or open a US bank account as a non-resident. Without ITIN, platforms withhold 30% of all your US-source payments.
ITIN Plus re-submits at no extra charge if the IRS rejects your application due to a documentation error on our part. CAA-submitted applications have a significantly lower rejection rate than self-filed applications because our agents catch errors before submission.
