Passwords Did you receive an email from your tax preparer that requires a password to open an attachment?
A password has been created for you. When prompted for your password, enter the first 4 letters of your last name, followed by the last 5 digits of your Social Security Number.
Your password is all lowercase letters. Make sure “caps lock” is turned off.
Your password doesn’t include any spaces, characters, or capital letters.
If you are filing a joint tax return, your password is based on the person who appears first on the tax return (primary taxpayer’s information).
Example: John Jones is an individual with the social security number 123-45-6789. Password: jone56789
