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.

Please tell me where (what site) do I enter Federal>Other Tax Situations>Other Return Info>Identity Protection PIN. TT absolutely will NOT let me enter my 6 digit IRS pin.
