Just in case, I called and asked for my username and password from my cabinet. They told me that I could go to any tax office and take my passport. You also need to know the TIN. If you go to the branch of the Federal Tax Service in your place of residence, then you only need a passport and do not need to know the TIN.

I went to the local branch of the Federal Tax Service, where I got a ticket in an electronic queue. My number appeared almost immediately. Don’t be afraid of the crowd at the Federal Tax Service: even if there are many people, they won’t stand in line. I told the operator at the tax office that I had come to get information for my account, handed over my passport, and three minutes later, I received a sheet with a login and a temporary password for my account on the tax website.

I went home Personal Cabinet login and temporary password. I had to wait about three days before all the information in my account appeared: taxable items, certificates 2- personal income tax, etc.
