I need my ip pin

[Critter-3]

Most taxpayers don't need an an IP PIN — the IRS only issues them in select cases; they are 6 digits.   If you know you need an IP PIN to file your taxes and you lost your CP01A letter (or never received it), you can:

• Retrieve your IP PIN online at the IRS's Get an IP PIN site; or
• Call the IRS at 1-800-908-4490 to have your IP PIN mailed to you (this can take up to 21 days)

We're unable to issue IP PINs and you won't find them on your tax paperwork. You can only get IP PINs from the IRS.   

Is my Self-Select PIN the same as my IP PIN?  NO, it is not - click for more info.

You are being asked to enter your 2020 AGI so that you can e-file 2021.

Where do I find my AGI?

https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/agi/help/how-do-i-find-last-year-s-agi/01/25947

https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/00/270...

Your 2020 tax return shows your 2020 Adjusted Gross Income  (AGI)  If you filed a joint return then the AGI is the same for each of you.

Form 1040        line 11

If you are using the same TT account that you used last year, you should also be able to find this number in your Tax Home for 2020

If entering the amount from your 2020 tax return does not work, then try entering “0” instead.  If that does not work and you still cannot e-file, then print, sign, and mail your tax return.

You can get a free transcript of your past return from the IRS:

Note: If you filed late or amended your return, your correct 2020 AGI may not be in the system.

What my ip PIN number 

[DianeW777]

A PIN is not required to file your current year tax return. To verify your identity for e-filing will use last year's adjusted gross income (AGI) as your PIN.  You can get a copy of your 2020 tax return, from TurboTax it will have your AGI.  Follow these steps to get a copy of your prior-year tax return.

Sign in to TurboTax making sure you're using the same TurboTax account (with the same username) as in prior years.

This link How do I find last year's AGI? has additional information that you may find useful.

However, if you need an IP PIN to file your taxes and you lost your CP01A letter (or never received it), you can:

• Retrieve your IP PIN online at the IRS's Retrieve IP PIN; or
• Call the IRS at 1-800-908-4490 to have your IP PIN mailed to you (this can take up to 21 days)

Forget it. If you had an IP PIN, you have to get a new one BEFORE you submit. If you submit once without it you are dead in the water. All you can do is submit by mail.

TURBOTAX DOESN'T TELL YOU THIS, NOR DOES IT ASK YOU ANYWHERE IN THE PROCESS WHETHER YOU HAVE FILED WITH AN IP PIN IN THE PAST.  THIS IS SHAMEFUL!!!!!!
