*You open a saving account in a bank and you tell them that you have no ITIN or SSN and you'll get an ITIN soon.
*You get a bank statement of your saving account signed by the bank.
*You send tax return application and attach your saving account's statement and tell them that you need an ITIN so you could pay taxes on the interest that you will get from the money you have in your saving account.
You'll need to forms on ID if I'm right, but don't send the original documents, send copies and go to a notary if needed.
