Forgotten User ID or Password

If your login credentials have slipped your mind but you still have access to the phone or email tied to your account, regaining access is swift and straightforward.

  1. Visit the Sign-In Help Page.
  2. Input your registered phone number, email address, or user ID.
  3. If you provide an email or phone number, you’ll receive a verification code via text or email. If you enter your user ID, select a preferred method for receiving the code.
  4. Enter the verification code or follow the instructions provided. Additional verification may be required to confirm your identity.
  5. Reset your password when prompted, or opt to skip this step.

After reclaiming access, you can update your account details like your phone number, email, or password. For future ease, consider linking a phone number to streamline verification processes.

Lost Access to Your Phone or Email

If you can no longer access the phone or email associated with your account, recovery is still possible using an alternative method. Follow these steps:

Capture a clear photograph or scan of a valid government-issued ID (e.g., driver’s license, passport, or notarized document).

Complete the account recovery form available on our website and upload your identification.

Within one business day, expect an email from [email protected] with further guidance. If your request is approved, you’ll be sent a link to reset your password.

Note: For security reasons, only the account holder can make modifications to account details. Customer support is unable to alter or update your information directly.

Verification Code Issues

Code Not Received

If your verification code doesn’t arrive immediately, try these remedies:

  1. Check your spam or junk folder for emails.
  2. Review all email addresses you may have used during registration.
  3. Ensure that [email protected] is marked as a trusted sender in your email settings.
  4. Resend the code via the "I didn’t get a text/email/phone call" option on the sign-in page.
  5. If you’ve misplaced your phone, check your carrier’s website for online text message access.
  6. On mobile devices, unblock the numbers 88811 and 97962 if they’ve been inadvertently blocked.

Invalid Verification Code

If you encounter issues with the code being unrecognized:

  1. Ensure you're using the most recent code sent. Delete earlier codes to avoid confusion.
  2. If needed, request a fresh code through the available options.
  3. Avoid closing the verification page, as doing so invalidates your code. Instead, open your email in a separate tab or window while keeping the verification screen active.

Password Reset but Unable to Sign In

Occasionally, after resetting your password, access issues may persist. Try these steps:

  1. Clear your browser’s cache and cookies to remove saved login data.
  2. Delete stored passwords in any password managers linked to the site.
  3. Close and reopen your browser or mobile app before attempting to sign in again.

Creating a New Account

For individuals without an existing login:

  1. Navigate to the sign-in page and select Create an Account.
  2. Choose a plan that suits your needs and proceed with the steps.
  3. Enter your email, mobile number, or any other requested information.
  4. Create a password and follow the subsequent instructions to complete the setup process.

By following the above methods, you’ll regain or establish access to your Intuit account swiftly.
