IRS IP PIN

Today I filed my 2023 federal and state taxes and both were rejected because my IP PIN is incorrect.

I signed into my IRS account and retrieved my IP PIN.

the problem is, IRS has assigned a 6 digits pin, but Turbotax only allows 5 digits.

So who is correct? IRS or Turbotax?

thanks

The question was not how to enter my PIN in turbotax, and was why IRS assigned 6 digits and turbotax allows only 5 digits to be entered.

The e-filing code is any self-selected 5 digit number. The 6 digit IP PIN is a separate entry.
