I was sent a IP PIN by the IRS to use on my tax return. But the turbo tax forms did not ask me to enter this number. Where can I enter my PIN?

PIN number is required for filling my return but the turbo tax system did not prompt me to enter a PIN

If you have a 6 digit PIN issued to you by the IRS you need to enter it in order to e-file.  Go to Federal>Other Tax Situations>Other Return Info>Identity Protection PIN and enter the six-digit PIN.
