5 digit versus 6 digit pin

My return keeps getting rejected due to an incorrect pin #. I have a 6 digit pin from the IRS but Turbotax only allows a 5 digit pin

If you have a 6 digit PIN issued to you by the IRS you need to enter it in order to e-file.  Go to Federal>Other Tax Situations>Other Return Info>Identity Protection PIN and enter the six-digit PIN.
