Assuming an ITN was used on tax forms during the previous years and an SSN is obtained now for that person, do we need to do something special to notify the IRS?

Info/links welcome.

Thanks
 
u have to inform IRS with a copy of SSN.

Otherwise if u try to file electronically, the system will not recognize you.

I think that the only thing you need to do is to write down
your SSN on your next tax return and then write a note that
your previous ITN is whatever number it is.
 
Thanks

Thank you for your replies.

I have been filing my taxes electronically and once the system rejected my return because of some information mismatch for one of the SSN. I will keep you posted if I run into issues. I will try to file in the next month and half.
 
You need to inform IRS

You need to inform the IRS about the change in status and SSN (with copy of the Social Security Card)...

I need to do the same thing for my son. He had a TIN earlier and now has a SSN...

Good Luck.

TIN Letter

I think you have to return the original/copy of the letter (when TIN was issued) along with copy of the new SS Card...

I shall try to find out more details...

Good Luck.
 
I tried to call and change the information... but...

I called the ITIN department of the IRS... (215) 516-4846...

The officer told me that I need to mail the originil ITIN card alongwith a photocopy of the new Social Security Card to the ITIN office...

IRS PSC-ITIN Unit
PO Box 447
Bensalem, PA 19020

I shall be mailing out the required information to them later this week...

Good Luck.

Not over yet. Maybe you need to also inform your change from ITIN
(or state tax id) to SSN to the state revenue department if you
also paid state taxes last year.

PS: I think there is a great chance that I will be
fired soon for being on the internet too much during
work :)

The problem with internet addiction is that all the people you meet are also in danger of being fired soon. This makes for an unhappy group ;-)
