“Stripe and Wise both onboarded me the week the number arrived. No more 4% conversion fees on every invoice.”
Background
Arjun bills six U.S. clients from Bengaluru. Each client paid through a different intermediary and every transfer lost a slice to conversion and wire fees. U.S. payment providers asked for a taxpayer number before approving an account.
What we did
We filed under the treaty-benefit reason with a client contract as evidence, verified his passport on video, and delivered the CP565 by scan the day it arrived.
Outcome
Both payment providers approved his applications within a week of receiving the ITIN. Arjun now invoices in dollars and settles directly.
