TIN number on tax form not accepted

Hello!

I am filing my taxes with turbo tax. I have stock in Toyota, and when I received my tax form from Toyota, the TIN was only listed as 0's. Any ideas on how to find the correct TIN? Turbo Tax did not accept the TIN given.

What tax form did you receive from Toyota? Is it a 1099-DIV, or something else?


Is the problem with the Payer's TIN or the Recipient's TIN.


If it's the Payer's TIN, you should be able to enter a 1099-DIV in TurboTax with just the payer's name. You do not have to enter the payer's address or TIN.


It it's the recipient's TIN, you normally would not have to enter that in TurboTax. But if you do, enter your Social Security number. You are the recipient.

I received a 1099-R without the payer's TIN.  I called and they said it was not required...  Turbo Tax flagged in the review so I entered n/a and it worked...

@jimmy5609  Did you e-file the tax return? Was it accepted?
