    You should each have your own IRS account. Log  into your Online Account

    For more options, see IRS retrieve/ reissue pin.

    If you are asking about a six digit IP PIN it comes from the IRS.  You do not create it for yourself.

    6-digit IP NUMBER FROM IRS

    to get you new PIN from the IRS

    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.

     

     

     

    If you are talking about getting your 2023 AGI or your five digit self-select pin----

    Where do I find my AGI?

     

    https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/agi/help/how-do-i-find-last-year-s-agi/01/25947

     

    Your 2023 tax return shows your 2022 Adjusted Gross Income  (AGI)  If you filed a joint return then the AGI is the same for each of you.

     

    Form 1040        line 11

     

    If entering the amount from your 2023 tax return does not work, then try entering “0” instead.  If that does not work and you still cannot e-file, then print, sign, and mail your tax return.

     

    You can get a free transcript of your past return from the IRS:  

    https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

    Note: If you filed late or amended your return, your correct 2023 AGI may not be in the system. 

     

     

    And the 5 digit self select pin is just that---five digits that you make up for yourself --you can use the same five digit pin each year or make up a new one if you want to.
