Where is it

TurboTax Deluxe Online

Log into your Turbo Tax Account and scroll to the bottom of the page to My Tax Returns and Documents. Click on 2019 and select view adjusted Gross income (AGI). You can also look at a copy of your 2019 Tax return and look on the 1040 line 8b.

I saw instruction that led to the AGI, but I need to find my PIN from last year and that of my wife in order to file for 2020. Can you tell me how to find them?

@jcooper You don't need a PIN number to Efile, just your 2019 AGI, unless the IRS sent you an IP PIN for identity theft.

If so, and you don't have the letter from the IRS with your IP PIN, click this link for info on How to Get your IRS IP PIN.

The IRS requires your 2019 AGI to verify your identity for e-filing. (If you're paper-filing your return, you won't need your AGI, because those are manually processed.)

Please check the link below for information on how to find your 2019 AGI:

How do I find the pin number I used to file my tax return last year?

If you are referring to the e-filing pin, the IRS discontinued the e-file pin. You will now just need to know your AGI.

The IRS requires your 2020 adjusted gross income (AGI) to verify your identity for e-filing.

To find your prior year AGI please check

Which PIN do you need? Your Self Select Pin is 5 digits and one that you create. The IP PIN is 6 digits and assigned by the IRS. For more details, please see the Help Article here.

Are you referring to the 5-digit Self-Select PIN you used to sign your 2020 return last year?

If so, last year's 5-digit PIN (aka "Prior-Year PIN or Prior-Year Self-Select PIN") is not necessary to verify a 2021 return for efiling. To verify your return for efiling you can instead use the 2020 AGI (most common) in the AGI field instead of using the prior-year PIN in the PIN field (less common.)

Be aware that later on there is another screen that asks you to "Sign" the return that wants you to enter a 5-digit PIN (it tells you to choose any 5 numbers you want). It's on a screen with today's date and your birth date. The numbers you choose to enter on that "signature" screen is called a Self-Select PIN and can be used again next year, if you save it in a safe place.
