Requiring the creation of an IRS PIN when filing on an extention?

Hairdresser2025 · May 19

My husband and I don't have an IRS PIN, we filed an extention and when I went to submit today, it required us to create one? So, I entered five numbers (that we would remember) and submitted it. Only to be rejected. I go in and remove the pin to resubmit and it won't let me? HELP

Hi Hairdresser2025,

It sounds like you may need an Identity Protection PIN (IP PIN). I recommend that you contact Support directly so a support specialist can see your account and suggest a way forward.

To get an IP PIN see this IRS webpage: https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/get-an-identity-protection-pin
