Everyone needs a five digit e-file pin, if you have a six digit IP pin assigned to you, that is required in addition. There is a place to indicate that you have an IP pin during the file step, but it is easy to miss. Another way to directly enter the IP pin is to go to the tab marked “other tax situations“ where IP pin is one of the items in the list.

I have submitted my taxes for 2023 after placing the IP personal pin and a chosen e file pin and got rejected twice.  What is the next step?
