They asked about an IP Pin. I now have the pin.

You will have to download the PDF of the 2021 tax return to mail to the IRS since e-filing of a 2021 return has closed.

You enter the IP PIN on page 2 of the Form 1040 in the Signature section of the form on page 2.

To access your prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Start the 2022 online tax return by entering some personal information then click on Tax Home on the left side of the screen.

On the Tax Home webpage -

Scroll down to the section Your tax returns & documents. Click on the Year and Click on Download/print return (PDF)

A 2021 tax return can only be printed and mailed, it cannot be e-filed.

Print, sign, date and mail the tax return to the IRS. Include with the mailed return any forms W-2 and 1099 which have taxes withheld. Go to this IRS website for mailing addresses - https://www.irs.gov/filing/where-to-file-paper-tax-returns-with-or-without-a-payment

There are no penalties for filing a tax return after the due date if filing for a tax refund or there are no taxes owed.

If the IRS just sent you an IP PIN then it is to be used on ALL returns filed in 2023 ( read the notice carefully ) so you will put it on the 2021 return you are mailing in now AND use it on the 2022 return you will efile this year. FYI ... since they have no 2021 return on file yet when you go to efile the 2022 return the AGI to use will be a simple ZERO.
