🚨 News Brief: Lock Down Your Taxes with an IRS IP PIN
The IRS is urging taxpayers to prevent identity theft by using an Identity Protection PIN (IP PIN). This voluntary, 6-digit code updates every year and acts as a lock on your account—ensuring no one can file a fraudulent federal return using your SSN or ITIN. 🛡️
Quick Facts:
You must request it: Only you can opt-in (your tax preparer cannot do it for you).
Get it online: The fastest way to enroll is through your IRS Online Account under "Profile" (in-person and mail options are also available if needed).
Stay alert: The IRS will never call, text, or email asking for your PIN! 🛑
