    If you have a 6 digit PIN issued to you by the IRS you need to enter it in order to e-file. 

    Go to Federal>Other Tax Situations>Other Return Info>Identity Protection PIN and enter the six-digit PIN.

    To enter, edit or delete a 6 digit IP PIN

    Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home and Business)
    Click on Other Tax Situations
    Scroll down to Other Return Info
    On Identity Protection PIN, click the start button

     

    The 5 digit e-filing PIN is any 5 digits you select.
