Could someone please tell me how to find the thread where it tells you how to get the ITTN? Do we need a certified copy of the passport? What is a certified copy of the passport? Will the US IRS accept a Brazilian certified copy? Will I have to get it translated?

Go to the IRS Website and download form W-7

http://www.irs.gov

If you have any questions you can contact the ITIN office at 1-215-516-4846.

You call the US Embassy or Consulate in Brazil and request to have a certified copy of the passport made. In my case--the US Embassy (Lima, Peru), even offered to fill out the W-7 as well. If you already have the W-7 completed then just get the certified copy of the passport made. A consular will stamp it (copy of the passport) with something to the affect Certified Copy for IRS purposes only.

Thanks so much. Yes the certified copy of the passport with the stamp is being Sedexed here as we speak. Do we need to have it translated into English?

In my case (Peru) the passport did not need a translation--but Peru passports are printed in English and Spanish, so it does not really need a translation. I don't think the passport needs to be translated. How is the Brazil passport--is it bilingual?
