    First, please make sure that you have purchased the right product. The codes for TurboTax Online will not work with TurboTax CD/Download & vice versa.

     

    Second, if you bought TurboTax at a retailer (Costco, Walmart, Staples, etc.), please make sure that you are using the code that came in the package. It may be on a slip of paper or on a scratch-off card. It is not on the outside of the box or on your receipt.

     

    If you have bought TurboTax Online, please go to turbotax.ca/activate to use your code before you start your returns. You can see this TurboTax FAQ for step-by-step instructions: In TurboTax Online, how do I use a prepayment code? 

     

    Please note that you can only use the code once in one account. Using the code again will give an error message.

     

    If you are still not able to resolve your code issue, please contact our phone support team at 1-888-829-8608.

     

    Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
