Well I think after countless hours and days trying to find an answer, I do have it. AND INTUIT IS A JOKE. Not just THEY created both, Turbo Tax and irs.gov website. But they offer no help that make people get the answers and intuit knows but wont tell. They just make us run in circles getting nowhere.
SO here is the ANSWER all us must do to fix this problem.
Go to your search engine and look up the 1040 form and download it with the PDF and mail it to the IRS.
TurboTax has nothing to do with IP PIN's whatsoever - that is an IRS inventions and requirement.
Why would you want do do your tax manually when you can just print it from TurboTax and mail it the same way?
Of course, you can always download blank forms from the IRS.
Here is the link:

Of course if you need any of the additional schedules to attach then it can become complicated (that is why people use tax software that automatically adds and fills out the necessary schedules.)
Also keep in mind that the IRS is not currently processing any mailed returns - just storing them until the IRS re-opens and by then the backlog of mail will take a long time.
