    If you are referring to the 6 digit Identity Protection PIN (IP PIN), the answer is No.  You can only get the IP PIN from the IRS.

    Go to this IRS website - https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/get-an-identity-protection-pin

    It's not clear what kind of number you are looking for. There is no such thing  as an IPIN. Do you want an Identity Protection PIN? An e-filing PIN? Or when you wrote IPIN did you mean ITIN? What do you want the number for?
