An Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, or ITIN is for taxpayers who don't qualify for a Social Security number. It's 9 digits long and looks like a Social Security number, except it always begins with the number 9. ITINs are used exclusively for filing tax returns.
Your own personal tax ID number, for yourself, is your Social Security number. If you have a business that is a sole proprietorship, and you obtained from the IRS an Employer ID Number (EIN) for the business, the EIN should be on line D of Schedule C.
The 10-digit Customer File Number serves as an alternative tracking number to match the transcript to the taxpayer for third-parties such as tax practitioners, lenders and college financial aid offices. Leave the entry blank if you were not directed by a third-party to enter the number.
You do not have a "customer file number." If you used an online account to file your return then you need to use the account recovery tool to find your return if you forgot how to access your TurboTax account.
