US Taxpayer Identification Number; Attn London, Paris, & Frankfurt: IRS Form W-7
IRS assistance is ‘advertised’ as being available to help you prepare your IRS Form W-7.
If like the majority of the other people on this planet you haven’t found the instructions worth their salt the IRS advises that you call 1-800-829-1040.
BAHOOT! As my old instructor would belch. Today as back then procedure hasn’t changed much. My guess is that you are here because that number didn’t work for you.
