Which PIN are you referring to? 

The 6 digit Identity Protection PIN that is sent to you each year from the IRS because you reported an identity theft? - https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/retrieve-your-ip-pin

Or the 5 digit e-file PIN where you only need to self-select any 5 digits to e-file the tax return along with the 2024 AGI from your 2024 federal tax return?
