Need to add a preparer to the 2022 software that has signed in the past but is not currently in this year or last years software. Trying to see where I can find the PTIN?

Curious to know why the preparer doesn't know their PTIN ? A very important number if you're preparing taxes professionally - hard to imagine they would forget.

It's a holiday and I'm trying to get the 990 wrapped up. I'm sure they know their PTIN, I just don't know it and it didn't transfer over from last years program. Thank you for your response.

@LN1 I just found that link today.. i looked for myself. My name came up but it did not show my PTIN. I know it of course but was expecting the results to show my PTIN.
