The 5 digit Self-Select PIN is a random number that you enter as your electronic signature when e-filing your return.

The IP PIN is a six-digit number that the IRS assigns to victims of tax-related identity theft.

To report your IP PIN in TurboTax:

1. Sign in to your TurboTax account.
2. Open or continue to your return if you don't already have it open.
3. In the search bar type IP pin (don't forget the space).
4. Select the Jump to link in the search results.
5. On the Identity Protection PIN screen, answer Yes. Select Add and enter your IP PIN in the space provided.

Submitted tax return with 5 digit pin used last year.  Return rejected because of pin problem.  Requested and entered 6 digit IP pin from IRS and return rejected second time. Thought maybe  IP pin entered wrong and received and entered second 6 digit IP pin and tax return rejected third time for pin problem. What am I doing wrong?

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.
