FYI ... the IRS IP PIN is easy to get if you want one AND you already have an IRS account set up and/or can set one up. Set up account access here : https://www.irs.gov/payments/your-online-account
Getting one without an Identity theft issue is totally voluntary at this time but I can see that in the future it may be required as this would reduce the fradulent return issue immensely.
It is literally just 2 steps:
1) click GET AN IP PIN here : https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/get-an-identity-protection-pin
2) log into your IRS account and an IP PIN is issued on the spot which you can print off and use immediately.
