IRS Pin

I lost my IRS ID Pin. I applied and received a new one, but it was 6 digits. Why does TurboTax only allow 5 digits?

You enter your IP Pin in a different area.

Follow these instructions to enter your IP PIN or to remove one that you accidentally entered.

Sign in to your TurboTax account
Open or continue to your return if you don't already have it open
In the search bar type IP pin (don't forget the space)
Select the Jump to link in the search results
On the Identity Protection PIN screen, answer Yes. Select Add and enter your IP PIN in the space provided
- If you need to remove the IP PIN, select the trash icon
Select Continue, then select Done
