Hey there, @Katherine3.

 

I'd be happy to assists you with getting your 10 digit pin so you can report your employees' wages.

 

Are you referring to the 10 digit pin used for E-Filing? If so, Once your enrollment for E-file services is approved, IRS will provide you a 10-digit PIN that you need to enter every time you e-file Federal Forms in QuickBooks Desktop. If you haven't received the PIN, I'd suggest contacting IRS E-file services at 866.255.0654 to request the status of your application.

 

To learn more about the E-file process in QuickBooks, please check out this article:

If you need further assistance with the E-file process, you may reach out to our Customer Care Team. They have the necessary tools to help you through the process. 

 

Keep me posted if you have any other question with QuickBooks. I'm always here to help. Thanks for coming and have a good one.

The IRS website states that set up of this number would start with the software, where in QB DT Pro-2018 is this at?

I recently took over the position of preparing payroll, I have changed my name in quickbooks should I also get a new pin as the old one is connected to our previous employee? and if so how would I go about doing so?


Hi there, @linsals.

 

You don't need to get a new pin as long as it's the same company. And let me redirect you to the best help available. 

 

If the contact person is still the previous payroll admin on file, I recommend contacting IRS to get it updated. They're the best support to advise you if there are changes that need to perform.

I want to talk about resetting my 10 digit Pin

I’m here to help you, @Abundantgrace.


Let me share information with you concerning resetting the E-file 10 digit PIN for payroll.

 

Since IRS provides the PIN, you’ll want to reach out to them for a PIN reset. Within 7 and 10 banking days, you’ll receive a letter from them about your request.


Here’s how:

 

  1. Contact 866.255.0654.
  2. Choose option 1 and then 3 for E-file questions.
  3. When you get an IRS agent, ask for the E-file 10-digit PIN.


I have resources here that help guide you when enrolling and filing federal and state payroll taxes successfully in QuickBooks. Visit them each for further information:

I updated my payroll as usual and now the 10 digit pin for e-filing is missing and I do not remember it.  What can I do?
