It depends.

 

The IRS discontinued the use of the e-filing PIN.  You will need to use your 2018 Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) instead.  See the following links for more information.

E-filing PIN

 

If you have an 6 digit PIN from the IRS, this is used to verify your identity if you have been a victim identity theft in the past.

5 digit PIN vs. IP PIN

Use the prior year AGI if you cannot remember the 5 digit code you made up.

Turbo Tax is making me enter BOTH the AGI from last year and the PIN (saying I can make one up) but I can't just make one up because the IRS is rejecting the return because the PIN doesn't match what I used last year.  Why is Turbo Tax making me enter both things instead of just letting me use AGI from last year's return?

For the purpose of signing your electronic return you can reuse your Self-Select PIN from last year or create a new one to use.

 

It doesn’t matter which option you choose.

 

For identification purposes, you need to enter either last year’s Self-Select PIN or adjusted gross income (AGI).

 

Your self-select PIN from 2018 is a personal number that is not kept in our system. Only you would have access to this number.

@ixo 

Please do not confuse your 5-digit PIN from last year with your 5-digit PIN for next year.

When entering AGI or PIN from last year to authenticate yourself, you should use one and clear the field for the other (but both can be entered if both are matching in the IRS database).

After that, you can select a new PIN for next time. Make a note of it.

Then, TRANSMIT.
