SS#/Corp ID#/ABN

[El Dude]

I don't have an SS#/Corp ID#/ABN, it is required so should I don't find another affiliate?

If you are not a U.S. resident, just tell them that, and you'll be fine.

But if you are a U.S. resident, then you do have a social security number already probably, as you need one to get a job, or if you're younger, then your parents have to get one for you so that they can declare you as being dependent on them in their taxes.

As a U.S. resident, all affiliate programs will need your social security number on a W9 form, as on their taxes, they have to declare that they paid part of their income to you, as affiliate earnings. Every affiliate program that I've ever signed up for has said that if you are not a U.S. citizen then just tell them that, and they won't bug you for the form.
