ITIN Hassles

[ITGeek]

Good news!  While I still haven't received the ITIN number for my asawa, I did get my 1040 tax refund auto-deposited into my bank account last week!  That's the most important part is the money 

However, I or my asawa still have yet to receive the ITN itself, so it's delaying filing my CA 540 tax refund.  I think I'll just tell my father to mail it in as is, rather than wait weeks or months for PHP office to deliver her ITIN document.  Besides, I'm sure their databases are linked anyway and it has my SSN.  Since I'm owed a refund my brother the CPA told me not to worry, a 0% penalty * $0 owed is still $0.  However, I could really use the refund money so I'll just send it in as is with my SSN only.  At worst, they'll just reject and ask for ITIN, which by that time hopefully I'll have.

We never received the ITIN in the mail. We just called the IRS and were able to provide enough information to convince them to give us the ITIN over the phone.

I can't remember if you filed the ITIN with Jim Boyd?  If so, give Leony a call.  She might get the ITIN long before your do.
