It depends. Using driver's license information is an identify protection for you and a means to fight tax fraud. Many state offices now require it. If it is left out, the return processing can be delayed.
Please check your entry for the driver's license, including the Issue date and Expiration date listed on your license to verify the input.
Some states, such as Alabama and Illinois, a driver's license is required. Illinois also allows an IL-PIN to file. In the case of Illinois, this information can be looked up on their website: IL-PIN Lookup.
For Colorado, only use numbers, but do not enter any special characters such as - or * or spaces. Be sure there are no extra spaces at the beginning or end.
For Texas, there is a date format advised. If any blanks or extra numbers are entered, an error message is generated. Highlight the cell and click delete several times before trying to enter again to completely clear the space of any extra blank spaces or extra numbers.
