Cannot File My Return & Cannot Talk To Human: Refund Requested

Hello -

 

So evidently there are exactly zero ways to contact a human at TurboTax. Red Flag #1.

 

My return was declined because 6-digit pin not entered.  Was not asked for 6-digit pin, but was asked to create some new 5-digit pin.

 

I did hunt down the 6-digit pin and entered that and refiled.  The return was again declined.  

 

So I called the IRS number involving pins and the recording said it can take up to 180 days to process a new pin.

 

I would really like a human to help me sort thru this and make sure I have to wait 180 [likely more] days for my refund.

 

Since there is no way to get a human, I want to make sure my TurboTax account is canceled with no money due, and I will find a human locally.

 

Please advise how to make sure the order is canceled.

 

P.S. sorry for all the "emotional incontinence" directed at your POS worthless AI phone tree.

@RicoWarner 

presumably you hunted down the six-digit PIN by finding the letter the IRS sent you. You can't e-File without it.

The IP PIN and the self-select PIN are two different things.

don't enter a five-digit PIN for authentication if you don't have one.

If your 2020 return was delayed, entering AGI = zero may get your e-File to go through.

Please re-read my post. I put in 6-digit code and still rejected, etc. Will not re-post it all here.

If rejected for the 2020 AGI then enter a 0 (zero) for the 2020 AGI and e-file the 2021 tax return again.
