    Filing ITIN for my Wife
    Hi,

    I am filing ITIN ( form w-7 ) for my wife along with my Federal Return. I have few questions.

    1. Should I check
    e. "spouse of a US citizen/resident alien"
    Or
    g. "Dependent/spouse of non resident alien holding US visa"
    I am on H1 B visa working since 2004. I have lived almost entirely in US from 2001-present..

    2. What documents I need to attach along with w-7 ?
    3. Do I enter my wife passport information in 6d section of form w7 if I check passport submitted ? What does it mean by "Issue by".

    Please let me know.

    Thanks

    The visa page is NOT required when applying for an ITIN, but adding it does not hurt and could answer questions before they can be asked.
