Used the IRS pages to generate a IP PIN, which did generate a 6 digit number. However, Turbo Tax software is only allowing for a 5 digit number. How can this be corrected? Receiving rejection notice since invalid PIN was submitted if I only use the first 5 digits.
The 5 digit self-select PIN is only for e-filing the tax return, it is not for the IP PIN.
