Don't post your pin or any personal info here. This is a public user forum and everyone can see what you post. Do you need to know where to enter a 6 digit IP Pin?

To enter your IRS 6 digit ID Pin number in TurboTax, please follow these steps:

In TurboTax Online, open your tax return
Click on Federal in the left-hand column, then on Wages & Income
Follow the questionnaire until you arrive at the question: Did you experience identity theft and receive an Identity Protection Pin (IP PIN) from the IRS?

You posted your IP PIN in a public Internet forum. You can edit it out. To do that click the tiny blue 3-dot icon just to the right of your question title and then choose Edit.

What do you need help with in regard to a IP PIN?

Do you need to know where in the TurboTax interview it's entered?
Or did you efile and got a rejection notice that refers to an IP PIN? If you got a rejection error code/message, please post the rejection error code or message.

If you need to know where to enter your 6-digit IP PIN, here's a shortcut if you are using Online TurboTax:

With your return open, click in the left menu column on TAX TOOLS, then choose TOOLS.
In the Tools window choose the blue button TOPIC SEARCH.
On the topic search line enter the term IP PIN without quotes.
In the selection list highlight IP PIN and either double-click it or click GO.

Or you can do it this way (in both Online and desktop TurboTax)

Federal Taxes tab (it's the PERSONAL tab in desktop Home and Business)
Subtab Other Tax Situations.
Then scroll down to Other Return Info.
Then choose Identity Protection PIN and then Start or Revisit/Update.
