I'm confused and therefore wondering if I'm missing something. My wife's SS# (I think it was SS#) was hacked like 10 years ago. Since that time she's received a PIN from the IRS. TurboTax asks for the PIN. Which we provided this year and previous years. In previous years I don't recall any additional questions. Just the request for the PIN. Also, no problem/restriction with e-filing. Now this year the questions and no e-file. Even the PIN letter states -- If filing electronically, your tax software or preparer will tell you when and where to enter it.
Clearly the IRS expects you to be able to file electronically. This feels like one of those very annoying bugs that happen from time to time in turbotax and don't get addressed in a timely manner.
If anyone has thoughts on an error I'm causing I would appreciate your input.
