Turbo tax rejected Fed return reportedly with missing IP PIN for taxpayer 1 -only my wife has an IP PIN due to prior security breach how to get around this?

Taxpayer 1 is the only taxpayer affected by this message.  Hopefully she is taxpayer 1?

 

If you are listed as taxpayer 1, with your wife as taxpayer 2, then be sure you list the IP PIN on the return as  taxpayer 2 on the return.  

 

Just be sure you list the IP PIN in the corresponding location for where the wife is listed on the return

 

Per IRS:

Q6: We're married and filing a joint return. How do we use/enter the IP PIN if 'one' or 'both' of us have one?

A6: Each taxpayer who has an IP PIN must enter it on their tax return.

 

Each  year, IRS will issue a new IP PIN to those taxpayers who need one.  Don't use last year's IP PIN on this year's return.

 

Q14: Do I have to keep this IP PIN and use it again next year?

A14: No. A new IP PIN will be generated each year.
