This FAQ is completely useless and you support has no idea how to resolve this issue

Then I contacted you again.

Goodbye 4.5 hours of frustrating phone conversation. Your link below has been seen 100+ times. You have offered no solution to this issue. What a mess. Absolutely some of the worst software issues I've ever seen.

I've restarted

I've updated Windows

I've disabled firewalls

I've Forwarded Ports

I've Shared my Screen to Show your Rep

I've downloaded it from Amazon

I've downloaded it from your site (with link provided)

I've prioritized the app to all private/public

And a lot more. -- NEED A SOLUTION ASAP.

@snyder698 Have you found a resolution? If not, please respond back on this thread.

I think the real question is "have YOU found a resolution"

Re: I keep getting error code 630 every time I try to use my activation code.

snyder698 — Fri, 20 Mar 2020 18:12:46 GMT

No, I wasted 4-5 hours of my life on the phone and probably another 3 hours off the phone.

Had to file it on my wife's MAC, what a joke. I'll never file with Turbotax again, especially after they just repeat "check our FAQ" and "contact us" - but won't address the fact there is an actual issue they cant resolve.

@snyder698 Happy to hear you filed but this is not the type of experience we want for our TurboTax users: our whole goal is to make taxes simple and convenient, this was not your case. Feel free to PM me with more feedback on your interactions from our team and I'll share it with those involved.
I hope you all have a great weekend!

Like I said, I will never use Turbotax again.

I just wish Turbotax would solve their issues with software for the public.Let me recap it:

Turbotax worked fine, Loaded up and inputted data
Update (which you cant deny to use on Windows)
Asking for Activation Code --- doesn't accept
Go onto support, find a bunch of useless FAQ/Contact us
Contact Turbotax Support -- No resolution
Contact Turbotax Support -- Told to "just refund through amazon and buy it through us" (hassle + more expensive) -- No Resolution
Crawl through forums wasting my time trying to find solutions
Spend hours doing "fixes" that are useless.
Contact Turbotax Support - No Resolution
Contact Turbotax Support - Offered No Resolution for Windows but offered a MAC license (which I don't want to do, but no choice).
Never use Turbotax Again, Tell everyone of my experience. I felt completely vulnerable-- I don't want to have issues with such an important thing. Maybe one day you guys will figure out a solution to this issue, but how can I rely on you now? I can't. Relationship ruined.

I'm also having the same issue. Used license code after downloading software and inputted all my info. I knew I was waiting for some more tax forms so I saved it and now can't get back in. Was on a call with TT support for 2.5 hrs with screen share....we uninstalled, reinstalled Turbo tax software 5 separate times during which I ended up updatinig windows, running as administrator, and getting new license code. None of these things worked. Now I am still stuck.

I bought CD, installed, entered code -- it worked. Threw away case because I thought I was done with entering code. Weeks later I tried to finish taxes -- after it auto-upgraded. and got this error. I called and got another code and download, everything fine. Then tried again a week later, it auto-upgraded and got same problem, can't get past activation screen. Tried uninstalling/reinstalling. Finally tried on different windows 10 machine (that didn't have turbo tax installed already) and it worked. Seems that install only works once on fresh machine, but auto-upgrade messes it up. Will hurry up and do taxes now before it happens again!!!!

There was an error with validating your license code, please try again. Error code: 630

I'm having the same problem as everyone else. I bought TT direct from Intuit via download back in February. Used for several weeks. Came back today and re-opened it - it had a number of updates to install which is understandable but after launching the freshly updated version, I got stuck at the activation screen. Talked to Tech support twice, got new Activation Code, disabled firewalls, updated Windows, etc., Finally, I tried installing on my wife's identical laptop and the activation code was accepted. I've compared versions and configurations and can't find any meaningful difference between these two machines.

I've used TT for just about as long as it's been around and this is the first time I've hit a hard wall like this. I'm assuming that Tech Support has reported this to engineering and they are working on a fix. Would sure be nice if someone from TT would just tell us that (assuming its true). If its not true, TT has a big problem that they are not addressing.

I'm completely stuck and out of ideas.

I've been a loyal TT customer for over 15 years.

I'm getting this same dreaded error code. I've read the worthless FAQ's, uninstalled/reinstalled, and spent hours on the phone with TT. You are about to lose me. Fix this glitch!

Thanh305 — Sun, 21 Jun 2020 21:05:29 GMT

I tried in May 2020, after tries just about everything, including installed a new version,Technical support said could be due to servers are down on COVID-19 (Yeah ??) - "call back in late June maybe servers are up then..."

Tried again today 6/21/2020- Same error on activation - error code 630

What's is going on Intuit - can you advise on how to get this running so I can file tax - its due in 7/15/2020 !

if there is a fix - please provide steps.

If you receive an error code that says, "The license code you entered is not valid. Error code: XXX", it means the code you're entering is either not valid for that product or is no longer active. Check that you're entering the code exactly as it appears on your CD insert or copy and paste it directly from your Downloads.

If you receive a error code with a message saying, “All available activations for that code have been used,” that means your code has already been used the maximum number of times, and therefore can’t be used to install the software on another computer. TurboTax can be installed on up to five computers using the same license code.

If you receive either one of these errors, wait a few minutes and re-enter your license code:

Sorry, we're experiencing a problem on our end. Please try again later. Error code: 620
There was an error with validating your license code, please try again later. Error code: 630
