The IRS has eliminated the use of a PIN to e-file your 2019 tax return. To verify your identity for e-filing you will use last year's adjusted gross income (AGI) as your PIN.
However, if you need an IP PIN, (TurboTax does not have a copy of your PIN) to file your taxes and you lost your CP01A letter (or never received it), you can:
- Retrieve your IP PIN online at the IRS's Get an IP PIN site; or
- Call the IRS at 1-800-908-4490 to have your IP PIN mailed to you (this can take up to 21 days)
You can get a copy of your 2018 tax return, from TurboTax it will have your AGI.
Follow these steps to get a copy of your prior-year tax return.
Sign in to TurboTax making sure you're using the same TurboTax account (with the same username) as in prior years.
- Select Documents from the navigation when it appears.
- Use the drop-down menu at the top of the screen to choose the tax year you want and then select Download PDF.
