Protect yourself from tax identity theft.
If you've had an IP PIN in the past, you will still have to get a new one before filing this year. According to the IRS, your number is only valid for one calendar year, so a new one is generated for your account each tax season. The IP PIN tool to apply for a new number is"generally available starting mid-January through mid-November," the tax agency says.
If you have lost or forgotten your pin number, you'll need to obtain it before you can file your return. You can do this through the agency's online IP PIN tool but you may have to verify your identity again. The IRS says you can also call"for specialized assistance" to have it reissued, if you're unable to retrieve your number online."An assistor will verify your identity and mail your IP PIN to your address of record within 21 days," the tax agency says.
