They say that my wife need to need to enter a IP Pin where do I enter the number

The IP PIN (Identity Protection PIN) is a 6-digit PIN provided by the IRS to victims of ID theft.  I'll show you 2 methods to get to the entry screen below.

Here's how to navigate to enter the IP PIN into TurboTax:

  • Log in and open your return ("Take me to my return.")
  • Once the return is open click in the top right corner on SEARCH.
  • Enter IP PIN without quotes.
  • Choose Jump to IP PIN.

Or here's an alternate navigation:

  • Federal Taxes tab.
  • Subtab Other Tax Situations
  • Scroll down to Other Return Info.
  • Choose Identity Protection PIN and Start (or Revisit.)
