E-file pin from 2019

I E-Filed my 2020 taxes but they were rejected with the reason code that my AGI or pin does not match what's on file with the IRS. I am entering my AGI directly from my 2019 return, so I'm sure that is correct. This year when E-Filing it prompted me to select a 5 digit pin # so I did. I do not remember what pin I used last year to E-File. How can I fine that # so I can try to E-File again?

The Self-Select PIN is a random five-digit number that you enter as your electronic signature when e-filing your return. The PIN number was a random number that you chose last year and is not kept in our system. Only you have access to that number. You may also use your AGI for your electronic signature. If your return was rejected for AGI, please see the information below:

There are a few places you can get your 2019 AGI:

  • If you filed your 2019 taxes with TurboTax, sign in and go down to Your tax returns & documents. Select View adjusted gross income (AGI).

  • If you didn’t file your taxes with TurboTax in 2019, the best place to get last year's AGI is from the 1040 form you filed with the IRS. Look on page 2, line 7. If you filed a 1040NR, it'll be on line 35.

  • If you're having trouble locating your 2019 return, the second-best place to get your AGI is from the IRS. You can order a free transcript of your return at the IRS Get Transcript site or you can purchase a full copy of your 2019 return. Both versions will include your AGI.
