IRS doesn’t accept e-file, since you are applying for the ITIN. So, you have to
send these forms (w7 and Federal return 1040 form) by post or by visiting any IRS center. First you will get ITIN number in 6-10 weeks by post from IRS, then IRS will directly deposit you federal tax refund in 4 weeks after that.
I submitted my docs on 22nd February and received the ITIN for my wife and child on 28th March through post. Now waiting for Federal return. Not sure how to check the status of my refund in this case
