Tax Year Prior to 2020: I’m not receiving my email for my 6 digit code

It can take up to 15 minutes for the code to be emailed to you, and check your junk email folders too. Please don’t try to get a new code too soon as it will invalidate the old code and you’ll end up waiting longer. Please see this TurboTax FAQ for more information if you are having trouble with your verification code https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/security/help/what-if-i-m-having-trouble-with-my-filing-verificati...

Tax Year Prior to 2020: I’m not receiving my email for my 6 digit code

I have been following all instructions which  4 different associates gave it to me , I mean it was all same guidelines,  I am still not able to receive code number. They cannot figure it out why I am not able to receive verification code number. Last associate told me I need to wait 15 minutes to receive the code number. So  I am waiting my email hopefully, it goes through and I can efile my taxes.

Please wait 15 minutes, and do not request another one code. Check your spam folder also.

If the 6-digit code is being emailed to you, are you checking your spam/junk folder also? Please respond back so that we can try to help.

It's been over 15 minutes and I have not received a verification code in my email. I've checked the trash and spam messages as well.

I'm also no receiving my filing code to my email. Funnily enough, when I signed into the app to try it out there it emailed me a code to sign in right away.

This is definitely on TurboTax/Intuit's end. Not my email.

 

EDIT: Looks like TurboTax gets hung up on that code verification screen if you're using Google Chrome. Switching to the latest version of Microsoft Edge did it for me.

I waited almost an hour and couldn't get a 6 digit code to file taxes either.  E-mail is working fine, as I got the TurboTax order confirmation + test e-mail sent by tech support after I called in for help.  

 

What a huge waste of time.

Same.  This is happening to me as well.

I just guided a customer using the instructions in the link and it worked perfectly!
