I need to complete my return without an ITIN. I will include an app for ITIN when I mail in my return.

You'll have to print and complete Form W-7 from the IRS links below, as TurboTax does not include it.  When completing the tax return, put in a "dummy" ITIN (you can use 999-88-9999).  Once you print it out, white this number out and fill in with "Applied for ITIN".  This return is to be mailed with the completed W7 to the I.R.S.  The address is on their website.  You also have the option to take the tax return and W-7 down to your local IRS office for processing.

Get a copy of this form to fill out by going to Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number.

For instructions on how to fill out and file Form W-7, see Form W-7 Instructions.

@DawnC0 Thanks for this dummy number. I tried using different numbers, my ssn with different last digits from other discussions and the software was not detecting it correctly for credit for other dependents. This combination of numbers worked perfectly! Thank you!
