I took my taxes to H&R Block last year and they used a pin number. Where do I put the pin number so my taxes stop being rejected?

The IP PIN is a 6-digit Identity Protection PIN provided by the IRS to certain victims of ID theft. Are you such a victim, and did you receive a letter from the IRS in December 2018 or January 2019 with your current IP PIN to use this calendar year? A new IP PIN is required each year.
Here's how to navigate to enter the IP PIN into TurboTax. I've listed 3 ways to get to the right place to enter the IP PIN. You only need to use one method. You can choose which method works for you the best. For some users the first method (Jump to) may not work.
- Log in and open your return ("Take me to my return.")
- Once the return is open click in the top right corner on SEARCH.
- Enter IP PIN without quotes then click the magnifying glass--do not use the dropdown menu, or it might not display the "Jump.".
- Choose Jump to IP PIN.
- Next screen asks: "Did you get an IP PIN from the IRS for this year's taxes?"
- If you choose "yes", it will have you enter it.
Or here's an alternate navigation:
- Log in and open your return ("Take me to my return.")
- In the left menu column, click Federal.
- Then at the top Other Tax Situations
- Scroll down to Other Return Info.
- Choose Identity Protection PIN and Start (or Revisit.)
- Next screen asks: "Did you get an IP PIN from the IRS for this year's taxes?"
- If you choose "yes", it will have you enter it.
Or here's a third way:
- Open your return if not already open. ("Take me to my return.")
- Once the return is open, click in the left menu column on TAX TOOLS, then choose TOOLS.
- In the Tools window choose TOPIC SEARCH.
- Enter IP PIN without quotes.
- In the selection list highlight IP PIN and click GO.
- Next screen asks: "Did you get an IP PIN from the IRS for this year's taxes?"
- If you choose "yes", it will have you enter it.
