The IRS has discontinued the e-filing PIN option. To verify your identity for e-filing, you’ll need to use last year’s adjusted gross income (AGI). The e-filing PIN isn’t the same thing as the Self Select PIN or the IP PIN. Please click What happened to the e-filing PIN? to learn more.

Are you aware that the PIN is now updated to a 6 digits not 5 digit? I have been trying really hard to file a bug report and there is absolutely no live chat to even report this bug.

A 6 digit Identity Protection PIN is only issued by the IRS. It is not entered in the File section of the program as a electronic signature PIN which is 5 digits and is a self-selected PIN.
To enter a 6 digit IP PIN
Or enter ip pin in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen. Click on Jump to ip pin
