well, I am a US citizen, but I live abroad, the thing is that after the whole fiasco with apple's help desk, I mean it was soooo horrible it was almost comical, I would hate to start the process, put my SS in the form asking for the tax id only to find out that the SS isn't the id number they want...I really try to avoid using my SS on the net as much as possible.
@bevdeforges, I was kinda under the same assumption, though the term "tax id" I usually associate with the one issued to a business.
I did read the requirements on the site and that's why I wrote apple, but as I explained in the OP, it was a vicious circle of "We can't help you, send your inquiry here" and then obviously whenever someone at the new email address received my question they sent it right back to the original help desk.
I guess I could give it a try, was just hoping that someone else had actually gone through the entire process to give me a definitive answer.
Much thanks guys, will check back in a couple of days.
