My activation code for 2020 turbo tax isnt working

The activation screen is completely white, with a blue dot in the middle.  There is no place to enter my code, nor is it asking me to.

I had to temporarily stop VPN on Opera while entering activation code for the third time. That worked!

Hello,

 

I forgot my 2020 activation code

More info is needed.   Did you install from a CD or a downloaded installation file?

If you purchased a CD, the code should be on the CD sleeve or enclosed sheet.  

 

If you downloaded the installation file, it depends on where you purchased it; e.g., directly from TurboTax or an online retailer like Amazon, Staples, Costco, etc.    If you purchased a download from TurboTax (or elected to get the download after purchasing a CD), the code should be displayed in the downloads section of your online TurboTax account, order history, or email confirmation.  

 

Did you previously install TurboTax?  If so, why are you needing the code again??   Did you just now install or reinstall the program?  Or are you installing on a different computer?

 

If you have already installed the program and have been using it OK previously, is it suddenly asking you to reactivate with the code?   If so, we can tell you how you can likely get around that without needing the code.

I am trying to enter my 2020 turbo tax and my sixteen digit code is not working. Can I get another sixteen digit code. I am trying to pull up my files.

 

Thank you,

This is a user community forum, and nothing account-specific is handled here.  You'll need to phone TurboTax Support for an activation code that's not working.
