@larrytommerdahl2 , agreeing with my colleague @DoninGA , about having to mail in your return if you are going to have to include a W-7, just wanted add that
(a) for including NRA person on your return whom does not have an ITIN, you need to prepare the return with a dummy SSN, select "file by mail", print the filing copy and replace dummy SSN with "N R A".
(b) sign , date etc.
(c) Fill out the W-7 for the NRA person and either attach all the documentation required and mail in the whole shebang OR, make copies of the documents required, visit the local IRS office and request certification/verification of the copies as "true". Now mail the return, W-7 and the copies to the IRS ( per instruction of form W-7). This should result in retrospective issuance of the ITIN and then processing of the return.
I am assuming here that your tax home is in the USA and not abroad ( because for that you need the services of an agent ).
Hope this helps.
Is there more one of us can do for you ?
