Question

Can I e-file with an IP-Pin rather than AGI with TurboTax?

My e-file was rejected because the IRS didn't recognize the AGI from my previous year's tax return (filed with Turbo Tax) and I'd really like to e-file again with my IP-PIN but I don't see how to do that on TurboTax. Is it possible?

     If it was rejected for AGI—-be aware that many 2020 returns took so long for the IRS to process that your 2020 AGI might not be in the IRS system.   Try using zero instead.

     

    If filing with zero is rejected then file again but select the option that you did not file last year.  The IRS does not see that question and it will allow you to e-file with no AGI question.

    If that does not work and you still cannot e-file, then print, sign, and mail your tax return.

    To be clear ... you need BOTH the IP PIN   AND  the AGI to efile the return.

    But where do I input the IP-PIN in TurboTax? I only see the signature PIN (which says to choose any 5 numbers) and not a place to put the IP PIN (which is 6 numbers assigned by the IRS)
