I have an IP Pin for my husband but did not enter it/ see a place to enter it and did not immediately get an e-file rejection. Will my return be rejected later?

    Here's how to get to that section: How do I add or remove my 6-digit IP PIN?

    I was able to click submit but now I’m concerned my return will be rejected. Is it possible it went through ok or is there anything I can do now?

    Don't worry if it gets rejected - you are considered as filed on time.   

     

    If your return is pending, you should be fine. Your submitted e-filed return doesn't need to be accepted on May 17 for it to be considered on-time. As long as you transmitted your return by 11:59 p.m. local time on May 17 you should be fine.

     

    If your return is rejected on May 17 you'll have through May 22 to re-submit your federal return by e-file, or mail your return.
