Note though...that the IP-PIN (6digits) is a special PIN that is supposedly reissued very year, so the one used this year (if you can get one) would not be used next year...the IRS would then re-issue a new IP-PIN next Jan/Feb. The IP-PIN goes in a special spot in the tax software on the "Other tax situations" page in the Federal section
The normal filing PIN (5 digits) is used just by the parent(s) during the final filing steps.
