The IP PIN is a special 6-digit Identity Protection PIN mailed to some taxpayers who had filed ID theft report. It is not to be confused with the Electronic Filing PIN that many taxpayers will use to sign their returns.

Here are the steps to enter the Identity Protection PIN (IP PIN) that some taxpayers received in a letter from the IRS:

In the Online Product, click on the FEDERAL TAXES tab.
Then click on the subheading OTHER TAX SITUATIONS.
Find the category OTHER RETURN INFO.
You will see the subcategory IDENTITY PROTECTION PIN. Click START.
Next screen asks if you received a letter from the IRS with your IP PIN. Click YES.
A box will appear for the input of the 6 digits.
