We E-filed our Return and got this Error (IND-181-01, IND-181-01 - The Identity Protection PIN (IP PIN) for the first taxpayer on your return is missing).
(We do have IRS PINs for me, and for my spouse.)
The corresponding TT email said: "Once you’ve opened your return in TurboTax, the details about what needs updating will be displayed."
We opened TT Windows Desktop Premier, and our Return now shows an Exclamation Point, but I don't see anywhere to fix that, or anything that says "FIX MY RETURN".
How and WHERE do we fix this? PLEASE HELP!!
Thanks much!
Alan
If you have a 6 digit PIN issued to you by the IRS you need to enter it in order to e-file. Go to Federal>Other Tax Situations>Other Return Info>Identity Protection PIN and enter the six-digit PIN.
