If you decide to use paperless electronic filing, the IRS requires you to create your own 5-digit personal identification number (PIN) and enter your prior year Adjusted Gross Income. This creates an electronic signature to allow you to file your return without mailing any paperwork to the IRS. See: Signing Your Electronic Return in the Filing Options step of the Steps to File page.
