Question

5-digit electric filing pin

On a joint return, is it OK for both spouses to have the same PIN, or should they be different?  Turbotax pre-filled in identical numbers for both my wife and me.

     you can use the same code if you want.  The 5-digit PIN is a code that you select to electronically sign your tax return.

     

    For more information, review the IRS article Self-select PIN method for Forms 1040.
