I believe (though I'm not totally certain) that the tax payer ID is actually always distinct - most domestic tax filing is done with SSN though and then translated to the tax payer ID. The context here is that my spouse is non-American and had to acquire a tax payer ID when we were married.
- pseudalopex 5y ago"A Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) is an identification number used by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in the administration of tax laws. It is issued either by the Social Security Administration (SSA) or by the IRS. A Social Security number (SSN) is issued by the SSA whereas all other TINs are issued by the IRS."[1] [1] https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/taxpayer-identification-numbers-tin https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/taxp...
