⚠ Is Your ITIN Expired?
ITINs expire if not used on a US federal tax return for 3 consecutive years. Filing a return with an expired ITIN means the IRS will withhold credits you're owed. Renew before you file your next return.
When Does an ITIN Expire?
The IRS has a rolling ITIN expiration policy. Your ITIN expires if:
- Not used for 3 consecutive years: If your ITIN was not used on any US federal tax return for 3 years in a row, it expires regardless of when it was originally issued.
- Middle digits 70–88: These ITINs expired on December 31, 2021.
- Middle digits 90–99 issued before 2013: These expired on December 31, 2022.
Check your ITIN number (format: 9XX-XX-XXXX) — the two bolded digits are the "middle digits." If yours fall in an expired range and you received it before 2013, it has expired.
| ITIN Middle Digits | Expiry Date | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 70–88 | December 31, 2021 | Expired — renew now |
| 90–99 (issued before 2013) | December 31, 2022 | Expired — renew now |
| Any middle digits — not used for 3 consecutive years | After the 3rd unused year | Expired — renew now |
| All others — used in last 3 years | Not expired | Currently valid |
What Happens If You Use an Expired ITIN?
- The IRS will still accept your tax return — but credits may be withheld pending renewal
- The Child Tax Credit, American Opportunity Credit, and other credits may be denied
- You will receive IRS Notice CP567 asking you to renew
- Processing your return will be delayed until renewal is confirmed
- Platforms like Amazon and Google may reject your W-8BEN if submitted with an expired ITIN
