QuickBooks Verification Code Not Received

Why Is My QuickBooks Verification Code Not Arriving?

There are several reasons you may not receive the code:

• The email went to your spam or junk folder

• Your email provider is blocking Intuit messages

• Your phone is blocking the number used for verification

• The code is delayed

• You entered a different email address or phone number

• You requested several codes and are using an older one

• Browser or internet problems are interfering with sign-in

• Check Your Spam or Junk Folder

If you selected email verification, check your spam and junk folders before requesting another code.

Intuit says QuickBooks validation emails are sent from do_not_reply@intuit.com. You can add this address to your safe sender or approved sender list so future messages are less likely to be blocked.

Also search all folders in your email account for messages from Intuit.

Check Your Email Address or Phone Number

Make sure you are checking the email address or phone number connected to your Intuit account.

If you have more than one email address, check the other addresses you may have used when creating your QuickBooks account.

If you recently changed your phone number or email address, you may need to recover your account before you can update your sign-in information.

Check Your Internet Connection

A slow or unstable internet connection can interfere with the QuickBooks sign-in process.

Try opening another website to check your connection. You can also disconnect and reconnect to your network or restart your router.

If possible, try signing in from another network to see whether the problem continues.

Try a Different Browser

Browser problems can sometimes interfere with QuickBooks sign-in.

Try opening QuickBooks in a private or incognito browser window. You can also clear your browser's cache and cookies and then try signing in again.

If the problem continues, try another supported browser or device.
