Hi guys

I'm trying to find a guy who can explain to me what to do when cashing a live MTT in las vegas as an Austrian resident.

According to https://www.wsop.com/2016/FAQ%202016%20WSOP.pdf one needs to provide a "Tax Identification Number". Any more specific info would be appreciated

May I apply for an Individual Tax Identification Number during the WSOP?
Tournament Staff will assist WSOP winning foreign players from United States Tax Treaty Countries in applying for an
Individual Tax Identification Number

Im in the same boat as living in a tax treaty country and don't have the the tax number as of yet.

Just make sure you have your passport/driving licence with you and a utility bill/bank statement proving your residence in a tax treaty country and (i think) you should be fine getting paid out in full, getting the ITIN number and making the process simpler next time.

Alright, so it's not 100% sure when you'll get that tax ID number?
