If you are using TurboTax Desktop

  • Make sure the software is updated. 
  • If you haven't rebooted your computer, please do
  • Check your firewall and antivirus settings. Make sure they aren't blocking any feature of the software. 

**You might also want to uninstall and reinstall your desktop product (this has worked for some users). Make sure that you save the file and do a back up of your information (you do not want to lose any information). See the links below
