How do I find PIN number in

Your question was cut short, so we don't know all the info. 

What kind of PIN?   There are at least 2 different kinds.   When signing your return in the FILE section, you will be asked to enter a signing PIN, which is a 5-digit PIN where you select any 5 digits (except can't be all zeros.)  That PIN is entered on a screen with today's date and your birth date.

 

Or are you asking about an IP PIN (Identity Protection PIN), which is a 6-digit PIN provided by the IRS to victims of ID theft, or to those who elect to opt-in to the IP PIN program?    If you are asking about how to enter an IP PIN, here's where to enter that 6-digit PIN:

Federal > Other Tax Situations > Other Return Info > Identity Protection PIN

 

Or are you asking how to retrieve a 6-digit IP PIN from the IRS website?

 

NOTE:   If you are referring to a 6-digit IP PIN, be sure you have your new one for 2026 that you are to use this calendar year.   The old one from 2025 won't work.

 

We may have additional comment, but we don't yet know which type of PIN you are referring to.
