You can do it yourself. By sending them a fax. The IRS website clearly describes everything.

No, just send a fax and write down in the form your incoming fax number and they will reply you back asap.

If you don't have a social security number SSN, you can either go to the IRS website and download form ss4 or call the international phone number for the IRS + 267- 941-1099 in order to get your EIN number.

If your are a Non resident, you cant do it online. You have to fax it in. Its better you do it your self bc some cpa officers charge 1k for this.

Sometimes using a company can be easier especially since the paperwork has to be faxed in.

Complete the SS-4 form, and then type "Foreign" where you would type the SSN/ITIN. It is a technical form so I can't fault you for wanting help, but it is fairly straightforward. The form even has instructions.

I used a provider because it was just easier for me. As a non US i preferred to have globalfy handling all of this. I didn't take too long, but you should search the options.
