Where do I enter my IP PIN on TurboTax Home & Business Desktop version?

My return was rejected because I need to enter my IP PIN. I am using TurboTax Home and Business Desktop version. Where does this get entered? The IP PIN is 6 digits so it cannot be entered on the e-file pin location.

 

Thanks

To enter, edit or delete a 6 digit IP PIN

  • Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home and Business)
  • Click on Other Tax Situations
  • Scroll down to Other Return Info
  • On Identity Protection PIN, click the start button

Or enter ip pin in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen. Click on Jump to ip pin

In the Home & Business version go to Personal.   The Federal tab is broken out into Business and Personal tabs.  So when you see Federal you use Personal.
