Is this real? I just got a text message from xxx-xxx-xxxx stating I have an important email from TurboTax in your inbox about your 2020 tax return I dont see anything.

I have checked my email and logged in to Turbotax and I do not see any new information. I looked up the number and appears to be from intuit.

Could post the phone number again please?  The forum software removed the number.

Use a dash after each number, eg 1-2-3-4, etc.

Thank you for the phone number.  That number is from Intuit, the owner of TurboTax.  It is their main number.

There was an email that went out to some customers on 3/25. If you received a text (SMS) from TurboTax, you should check your personal email inbox to see if you received one. Check your spam/junk folder as well. If you didn't receive an email, you can disregard the text. "
