4. Send to the IRS in Texas

You then need to post the form to the IRS. Send to

Internal Revenue Service

ITIN Operation

P.O. Box 149342

USA

It is best to post it using Airsure so that you can track its journey. This should give you peace of mind with it containing the important documents. You may wish to insure it, as the documents you have enclosed may be expensive to replace. However, the IRS will not pay to insure the documents when they are returned.

It is possible to take documents to the US Embassy in London or to certain companies to have them authorise them. This will mean that you will not have to post out your ID. However, this could be difficult to organise if you do not live close to these companies as you will need to go in person. It may also slow down the process.

Chasing Documents

You should leave 60 days before chasing documentation with the IRS. If you have not heard back, then it can be wise to telephone the IRS. You can do this by contacting the IRS department at the US embassy in London. This is cheaper than calling Texas! They will be able to tell you whether your number has been issued and send you a form with the number on, free of charge, in case it is lost in the post. Their telephone number is 020778940477. It will keep ringing while you are on hold, so do not give up, but they do only have certain opening hours to take calls – Mon 9-12 and 1-4, Tue – Thur 9-12.They are also closed on certain dates due to public holidays so it can be wise to check on the website. There is a charge associated with calling them, but it is likely to be less than talking to the IRS in Texas.
