Please clear your cache and restart your computer. You may try using a different browser also.

I'm also getting the sad puppy on Chrome, yesterday and today. I've cleared cache for 7 days then tried a different browser- Edge. Now what?

Hi Susan, I called the help line and we managed to determine that I get sad puppy on two different computers, in incognito mode, and then on my phone as well through the turbotax app. This has been happening for 2 days now, are there any next steps to get my taxes in on time?

Did you save your return before logging off? If yes, have you tried clearing your cache and cookies?

 

Make sure that you close everything off on your computer- then log into your TurboTax Online account once again- please let us know if you are still seeing the puppy page.

I'm seeing the same thing after hours inputting data, then I get the "sad puppy this shouldn't have happened..." message and your phone support people give the same useless runaround as everyone else. 

Has anyone had success getting around this?

Can you please clear your cache and cookies? Then log back into TurboTax and try again.

@TurboTaxBrenda Why do you keep parroting this when you know that doesn't help? 

Logged out, cleared cache, cleared cookies, changed browsers, tried on a Mac and on a PC.

So that's a total of 4 browsers on 2 operating systems with and without incognito mode, multiple cache/cookie clearing and pointless restarts. None of that helps.

The problem is clearly at the server end.

We can't see it from our end. The only option would be to contact our phone support team which we understand you have done already, and have them send this for investigation as they can view your screen.
