    Filing Form W7 for my wife abroad
    I'm helping my wife, who lives abroad, fill out form W7 so that I can file my taxes as a "married/ filing joint".

    Now in section number 2 in the application "Mailing Address", can I put a P.O. Box or my address here in the U.S? In the country she resides in, they don't really have home addresses where mail can be delivered.

    I'm thinking if I put my address here in the U.S. when I receive the ITIN number, I can send it to her.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
