ITIN Application sent

I sent my ITIN (Individual Tax Identification Number) application to IRS last February 8, 2010 (Monday). I want to thank my friend Maria for helping me out in this application. I just wanna share to all on how and what are the papers I submitted.

Papers I submitted

1. W-7 form which I downloaded from IRS Website.
2. Photocopy of my Marriage Certificate.
3. Photocopy of my Birth Certificate.
4. Photocopy of my Passport.
5. Photocopy of my Visa.

Note: I went to the bank to notarize the photocopy of my MC, BC, Passport and Visa before I submit them.

The address where I sent the package

Internal Revenue Service
Austin Service Center
ITIN Operation
P.O. Box 149342
Austin, TX 78714-9342

Why I am applying for ITIN?
So that my husband can put me in his Tax papers.

My friend told me that they usually approve the application within 2 weeks after they receive the application (that's if the applicant submitted all the required papers and if the form is answered correctly). I hope I'll get approved soon hehe :)
