"You no longer need a PIN number from last year to electronically file your return as the IRS did away with this method of security validation. Instead you will be required to use your 2018 AGI (Adjusted Gross Income) in order to electronically file your federal tax return."
Not a true statement.
Use of the self-select PIN Is optional, and not done away with.
What was done away with was the ability to have IRS give you a PIN at the time of filing.
that happened several years ago.
