CP01A is not the IP PIN. CP01A is the type of IRS letter, which may have provided your IP PIN. Read the whole letter.
An IP PIN is a 6-digit PIN provided by the IRS to certain victims of ID theft. It consists only of numeric digits. Did you get a CP01A letter from the IRS containing an IP PIN?
If so, here's a way to enter the 6-digit IP PIN into your return:
- Log in and open your return ("Take me to my return.")
- In the left menu column, click Federal.
- Then at the top Other Tax Situations
- Scroll down to Other Return Info.
- Choose Identity Protection PIN and Start (or Revisit.)
- Next screen asks: "Did you get an IP PIN from the IRS for this year's taxes?"
- If you choose "yes", it will have you enter it.
