Yes, according to IRS instructions, you need to file an extension if you are applying for a new ITIN (Form W-7). You will have to complete your return in TurboTax, then mail your return for processing. Attach the W7 to your return & mail it in to the address for the W7.  You cannot efile with the W7 form.
