    The 6-digit Identity Protection PIN (IP PIN) is different from the 5-digit e-filing PIN, and is entered in a different place. Here's how to enter your IP PIN in TurboTax if you are e-filing.

    • Click the Federal Taxes tab.
    • Click "Other Tax Situations."
    • Scroll down to the section "Other Return Info."
    • Click the Start, Update, or Revisit button for "Identity protection PIN."
