Is anyone having problem in obtaining ITIN for spouse when filing 1040NR as Nepal is not eligible to claim Spouse as Dependent. Last time Dariwal was mentioning that had had received his Taxing filing returned from IRS due to ITIN. Suggest. Deadline of Filing is approaching soon.

Nepal ko lato,
I got my ITIN last year, didn't have any problems. It just takes longer, about 6 weeks. In the meantime, you should call them frequently to check on the status , mind you they keep you on hold for as long as 45 min. Dependent visa holders (F2 or H4) from Nepal are eligible to get ITIN number. I would suggest you go to the nearest IRS office and talk to the staff there. I filled my forms at a local IRS office and they made sure I had all the necessary documentation before they processed mine.

Good Luck !

i received my wifes ITIN yesterday and i just faxed that info to my state IRS so it should be okey now. but i had sent the ITIN application along with my federal tax to philadelphia on 15th of feburary and i just received that yesterday so that should give you an idea about the waiting time. let me know if you need to anything else that i can help

धन्यवाद मित्र हरु सुझाबको लागि । म पनि मेरो ट्याक्स सँग mero spouse ko ITIN application पठाउछु. ।

good info for me as well. Thanks dude.

Dariwal, You mentioned last time that you received back your Tax Return mentioning that there was no ITIN and said you are going to local IRS office. What did you do with Tax Return you received back. Can you please describe little bit detail? I am afraid that I do not have six weeks to receive ITIN for spouse as time remianed to file Tax Return is less now.
