The W-7 asks you for your home address, but does not require that your home address be listed on your passport. You can simply fill in your home address on the W-7 form itself. You have the choice of mailing either the original passport, or a certified or notarized copy of your passport, to the IRS along with your application.
We are told by the IRS that the application process should take about 6 weeks, but you should ask the IRS if you have any further questions.
