The ITIN is the Individual Taxpayer Identification Number — in simple terms, a tax number that the IRS issues for non-US residents to file their US taxes.
A US visa is your ticket to enter the US — it lets you work, study, or travel lawfully.
For non-residents with US investment income, holding an ITIN and filing taxes on time can actually be a plus when applying for an investor visa such as the EB-5.
Takeaway: an ITIN itself does not affect US visa approval. In some cases, filing on time with an ITIN can positively influence an investment visa application. If you don't have a number yet, you can apply for an ITIN tax number online regardless of your visa status.
