In short, based on what I have read, she does NOT have to get a new passport. But, YES, she does need a certified or notarized copy of the passport. Some have interpreted this to mean a copy notarized by a U.S.notary. But I do not believe this to be accurate. My wife got her passport notarized by a Colombian notary...since she is still in Colombia.

My best guess is that the IRS requires a copy of the passport to in "authenticate" the spouse. Obviously, there is no such requirement for a resident spouse.

PS - don't forget to have your wife sign the appropriate election to be treated as a resident alien so that you can file jointly.

With the right declarations, Yes. The IRS has publications on there website that explain what you can do.

YMMV

since you are still out of the country you might have to get it notarised at the us consulate.. check the directions on the ITIN application...

I got my number while still living in Australia but had to send my passport and the application to the sydney consulate for notarisation.

good on you for planning ahead now so that come tax time you will be organised!
