🔍 PIN for Child

This guide explains when a child under age 16 can (and cannot) use the Self-Select PIN and when the Practitioner PIN may be used.

⚠️ Before You Begin

Review the eligibility rules below before choosing which PIN option to use.

📊 Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Check when Self-Select PIN can be used

  • A child under the age of 16 may use the Self-Select PIN if they are a primary taxpayer who filed previously.
  • A child under the age of 16 may use the Self-Select PIN if they are a secondary taxpayer who has filed in the immediate prior tax year.

Step 2: Check when Self-Select PIN cannot be used

  • A child under the age of 16 may not use the Self-Select PIN if they have never filed.
  • A child under the age of 16 may not use the Self-Select PIN if they are a secondary taxpayer who did not file in the immediate prior tax year.
