Hi Poorani,

Visit your local IRS and apply for an ITIN and also you can simultaneously file your tax returns.the representative there will guide you in filing the tax returns.

for your local IRS click on the below link
Contact My Local Office

PS: take an appointment or else you need to spend almost half the day in their office as it will be crowded as this is the Tax season.

Hope this helps!!!

Although the due date is 4/15/08, you can request for an extension of time to file (not to pay) till 10/15/08. Visit the IRS website for more information at Internal Revenue Service

Usually - when you get a document notarized - they do it on the last page. I would suggest that you copy all pges that have information on it - they are probably looking for identification information - with your photo, address,etc. It might be a good idea to get the page of your main information - the photo, passport no, etc, page notarized.
