If you have had security issues with your tax return and been assigned a IP PIN Here are a real answer to the "Where do I enter the IP PIN?" and "Do IP PINS change every year?" I am using Turbo Tax Deluxe. Where do I enter the IP PIN? For 2018 the IP PIN is on under the tab FEDERAL TAXES, and the sub-tab, OTHER TAX SITUATIONS. Scroll down to OTHER RETURN INFO and click on UPDATE. Do IP PINS change every year? Yes! The IRS will send you a letter December/January with your IP PIN. If you do not add this PIN to your tax return, it will not be accepted! I agree with all the comments above - this enrty should be prominent on the filing page with the other security information - you should not have to search for it! After searching under the Community Help - which is no help - and more than an hour with TurboTax Support I found the info in an Internet search - NO one at TurboTax knew the answer and that is unacceptable. If you file without the PIN your refund could be held up for months!

Why isn't this a question prior to finishing on-line taxes? I just filed my taxes without the IP PIN from the IRS. This is your fault for not having it as part of the questions asked at closing/filing.

I just finished my husband's taxes and was waiting for a clear place to insert his Federal 6-digit IP PIN number, as his taxes were compromised last year by some crook. Why isn't this a question prior to finishing on-line taxes OR, preferably, at the beginning? Very disturbing that I learn I was to hunt and peck to find where it SHOULD have gone. In an era of identity theft, theft in general, I would think this be a top priority.
