An 8453 must be prepared and signed by the taxpayer. The PIN
process cannot be used for first-time filers and those who
do not have their AGI number.

Well, that used to be the case, but I noticed just yesterday
with a new client, 18 year old, first time filer, I routinely
selected PIN and my software didn't declare any errors when
diagnostics were run.

he hasn't paid me yet, so I haven't tried to file it yet
either. If it doesn't go through, I'll try to remember to
post here.

If this is first year for taxpayer to file, there is no AGI
from last year, how does this affect the efile signature
process with a PIN? And how does it affect when AGI was
lost in the shuffle from last year?

tks all
