Signing Your Return Electronically (Self-Select PIN)

You can e-file a paperless tax return using the IRS's Self-Select Personal Identification Number (PIN) program. When you use this program to sign your return, you simply select a PIN number and enter your prior year's Adjusted Gross Income. You don't have to mail a signature form or any attachment (like W-2's and 1099's) to the IRS.

If you imported information from your 2006 TaxCut return, your prior year's Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) is automatically filled in for you by TaxCut. If you did not import information from your 2006 TaxCut return, you must enter your prior year's AGI. Click here to find out where you can get this information.

Note: If your prior year AGI amounts don't match exactly, the IRS will reject your return.

You cannot sign your return electronically if:

You are under the age of sixteen at the end of the tax year, on December 31.
You need to send in a form or document with your Form 8453-OL.
You have a foreign address, except for APO/FPO addresses.
You are an alien with a Social Security Number not valid for employment.

Note: Even though you are filing your return electronically, you may still have to mail some documentation to the IRS. If you are paying your taxes by check you must complete a payment voucher form. At the end of the e-filing process, TaxCut displays a Filing Checklist which will list the address where you mail the Payment Voucher with your check.
