I am having the same issue

I am facing the same issue. I don't work in US anymore and my US phone number is invalid now so I had added a friend's number. Still doesn't work.

Same for me - in UK

Looks like a lot of us have the same problem! Anyone from Turbotax able to advise? 

I also tried with a US number but it didn't work :(

Same issue, won't file FED/STATE and same error code.  I'm outside of the US but have a US phone number for the tax section.  Have a foreign phone number for verification purposes for Turbo Tax sign in.  Hope that isn't an issue because for some unknown reason, I can't delete it from my account info.  This sucks Turbo Tax.  Please get it resolved soon.

Exact same issue as everyone else. My account sign in number is different - it has an Indian code because I don't live in the US anymore. Hope that isn't causing the problem.

I'm living here with you guys!  Same issue just now.

I should say that I'm also based overseas... but used a google voice from the get-go and still go the error.  Could it be we are all filing 2555 foreign income exclusions and getting the error?

Exact same issue for me. I'm also filing from the UK. I've tried formatting the number differently, but it auto-formats it anyway.

I've tried a Google Voice number, a US mobile number, and even a US land line all to no avail. Sounds like quite a few of us could use some help here. 

Same error +1. Please help or provide some message more useful for troubleshooting. Thanks!

i used HR block because i was having this same issue and it worked :shrugs:

I'm having the same issue! I'm based in Japan and I get that message no matter what. I even tried using the US number of two different relatives. I tried using the area code for America +1, and I tried without it. I tried with a Japanese number, also with and without the Japanese area code. Nothing worked! I was told I needed to change my mailing address to an American one, so I used my PO box but it didn't work. I don't even know why they would suggest that? Please help! TurboTax this is clearly a big issue!!
