Anyone including children is eligible for an IP PIN if:

You’re a victim of identity theft and IRS resolved your case. As a result, IRS sent you a CP01A Notice containing your IP PIN, or
You filed your federal tax return last year as a resident of Florida, Georgia or the District of Columbia, you are invited to participate in the IP PIN program by going to Get an IP PIN. The program is not limited to identity theft victims or
You received an IRS letter inviting you to ‘opt-in’ to get an IP PIN.

You need to notify the IRS of the identity theft by filling out Form 14039, Identity Theft Affidavit on behalf of your child.
