I have been developing a new version of my iPhone application, Subnet Calc for a few weeks now. I decided to call the new version Subnet Calc Pro as it’s essentially an advanced version of the free one.

In order to sell applications on the App Store for money you have to complete the banking and tax information. The banking information is straight forward but the tax information is a little bit more tricky due to the strange nature of having to fill in lots of bits relating to US tax identifiers (ITIN and EIN) and so I had no idea what to do, so I emailed Apple and got an extremely useful reply which basically stated:

ITIN: 000000000

Nothing else needs to be filled in except for the obvious stuff in Part I and checking the box in Part IV.

So that helped me lots and I managed to fill in the form correctly and then I got the email through from Apple with the contract as a PDF which I have printed and will send off to Apple in Austin, Texas.

Then I was in a position where I was able to submit my application as a paid application. I did so and selected Tier 4 as a starting point which I hope will make me a bit of cash! Hopefully it will get accepted soon and I will have my first paid application on the App Store!
