I have an IRS pin, do I still have to enter an ID?

It depends. The information posted below is also explained in this article. Why are you asking for my driver's license or state ID?

In an effort to help protect your identity and fight tax fraud, the IRS and many state tax offices are now asking that tax filers provide their driver’s license or state-issued ID number.

Providing this info is not required to file your taxes. However, in some states, omitting this info may delay the processing of your return.
