    IP PIN

    I've entered the IP PIN for taxpayer, spouse is choosing own pin, but I can't submit.  It rejects review b/c it wants a pin for the taxpayer?  How do I make it use the IP PIN, or do I enter the IP PIN and a regular Pin?

    If spouse is choosing a PIN for e-filing. You will choose one for the taxpayer if the program is not set up to create one automatically, then enter the Identity Protectioon (IP) PIN in a different place on the information worksheet.  The taxpayers PIN for efiling is not the same as the Idendity PIN for ID verification.
