I have my new IP Pin and all the help screens say to "search IP PIN and then Jump to" to get to the place to enter it.
Search takes me out of my APP to the Intuit Web Site on my browser.
What specific commands in the 2024 Mac APP do I use to get to the IP PIN entry page?
I don't see anything related on the Personal Info Tab, but a sub tab "You & Your Family"
To enter, edit or delete a 6 digit IP PIN
Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home and Business)
Click on Other Tax Situations
Scroll down to Other Return Info
On Identity Protection PIN, click the start button
In Step by Step, your solution to enter the IP PIN is excellent and I entered them with no problem.
However in Forms, which I prefer to use to enter data, the program would not let me enter the IP PIN in either the 1040 worksheet or the actual 1040 form.
Anyway, problem is solved. Thanks!
Thank you so much! I've been looking for over an hour!
How to enter my IRS-issued 6 digit, "IP PIN" into TTax?
*******************See very bottom for what worked for me *************************
I never found "Federal Taxes," explicitly, in the desktop application. In the desktop, Searching on, "IP PIN" took me to the INTUIT site where I got unsuccessful instructions...
======== Instruction in Intuit "Community Support" was NOT successful: =====================
https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/import-export-data-files/add-remove-6-digit-ip-pin/L1cz7f2zQ_US_en_US
How do I add or remove my 6-digit IP PIN?
Follow these instructions to enter your Identity Protection Personal Identification Number (IP PIN) or to remove an IP PIN that you accidentally entered.
Open or continue your return.
Navigate to the IP PIN section:
TurboTax Online/Mobile: Go to IP PIN.
TurboTax Desktop: Search for IP pin (don't forget the space) and select the Jump to link.
===================================================================
*************************The successful instruction for entering IRS issued IP PIN:*************************
1. In TurboTax (Home and Business), desktop application, open your tax return.
2. In row of tabs across top, select tab, "Personal"
3. Select "Other Tax Situations"
4. In page, "Did you get an Identity Protection PIN from the IRS for this year's taxes?" select [Yes]
5. Next to taxpayer's name, select [Add]
6. "Tell us your Identity Protection PIN" (IP PIN)
Enter your IP PIN (this PIN is obtained from the IRS ID.Me online portal, https://api.id.me/en/session/new)
7. Follow remaining TTax instructions.
DONE!
Many happy returns,
AevaO
Step 2 should be "Go to Federal Taxes" not Personal Info
When I click on the update button to enter my pin, the screen pops up blank
You can try these steps to resolve if you are using the online version:
this step by step is literally 'fill in your IP Pin' for (as Fred Sanford would say) dummies. Thanks!
Thanks for your info DoninGA.
I find it amazing that TurboTax STILL HAS THE INCORRECT INSTRUCTIONS AND DID NOT FIX THEIR TurboTax ASSISTANT TO ACTUALLY PROVIDE A "Jump to link" OPTION TO MATCH WHAT THEIR WEBSITE STATES FOR DOWNLOADED VERSIONS OF TurboTax (https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/import-export-data-files/add-remove-6-digit-ip-pin/L1cz7f2zQ_US_en_US?uid=m828qwla). MONTHS LATER, STILL A PROBLEM!!! THE ASSISTANT MAKES NO MENTION TO "Jump". IT OFFERS "Retrieve", which redirects to the IRS website, and Add/Delete, which redirects back to the page with THE ERRONEOUS INSTRUCTIONS!
TurboTax employees: WAKE UP! Read your own community web pages so that YOU CAN LEARN THE CORRECT ANSWERS AND FIX YOUR SOFTWARE AND INSTRUCTIONS ON YOUR WEB PAGES! I HEAR H&R BLOCK IS GETTING BETTER ALL THE TIME! DOGE FOR Intuit!!!
Yes, fix this TurboTax. I have gone in a circle three times with your chat bot "help" telling me to go to a website, and the website tells me to use the Help-bot. There are no "jump to" links given by the help bot.
The instructions from AevaO above worked for me with the Desktop version of TurboTax.
I have completed Turbo Tax Deluxe for 2024 Federal and State. Never prompted to add my IP Pin
To enter your IP Pin, search for IP PIN and use the Jump to link OR you can get there by visiting the Other Tax Situations - Other Return Info section in TurboTax. How to enter my IP PIN? @81946
