No. april doesn’t support filing with Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITINs) at this time. To e-file with april, everyone on the return needs a valid Social Security number (SSN).
What’s required to file with april
To complete a DIY return in april, you’ll need an SSN for:
You, as the primary filer
Your spouse, if filing jointly or separately
Any dependents you’re claiming
If anyone on the return only has an ITIN, you won’t be able to continue filing in april this year.
Why you may see an error
If you enter an ITIN instead of a Social Security number, you’ll see an error message when you try to continue.
Invalid SSN provided
This usually means the number was entered correctly, but ITINs aren’t supported.
Does filing status change this?
No. SSNs are required even if you:
File Married Filing Separately
Have a spouse with an ITIN
Claim a dependent with an ITIN
What to do next
If you, your spouse, or a dependent only has an ITIN, you’ll need to use a filing option that supports ITINs this year.
