      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="color:var(--ck-color-mention-text);"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="background: var(--ck-color-mention-background); color: var(--ck-color-mention-text);"&gt;&lt;a href="https://turbotax.community.intuit.ca/community/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5988379"&gt;@jsjennings214&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt; First, please make sure that you have purchased the right product. The codes for TurboTax Online will not work with TurboTax Desktop &amp;amp; vice-versa.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Second, if you bought TurboTax at a retailer (Costco, Walmart, Staples, etc…), please make sure that you are using the code that came in the package. It may be on a slip of paper or on a scratch-off card. It is not on the outside of the box or on your receipt.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you have bought &lt;STRONG&gt;TurboTax Online&lt;/STRONG&gt;, please go to&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://shop.app.intuit.ca/activate?rootProfile=ca&amp;amp;locale=en-ca" target="_blank"&gt;turbotax.ca/activate&lt;/A&gt; to use your code before you start your returns. You can see this TurboTax FAQ for&amp;nbsp;step-by-step instructions:&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://turbotax.community.intuit.ca/community/product-information/help/in-the-online-edition-of-turbotax-how-do-i-use-a-prepayment-code/00/873624" target="_blank"&gt;In TurboTax Online, how do I use a prepayment code?&lt;/A&gt; Please note that you can only use the code once in one account. Using the code again will give an error message.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you have bought &lt;STRONG&gt;TurboTax Desktop&lt;/STRONG&gt;, you will be asked for the licence code when you install the software. Please see this TurboTax FAQ for more information on the licence code:&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://turbotax.community.intuit.ca/community/product-information/help/where-is-my-turbotax-installation-key/00/873426" target="_blank"&gt;Where is my TurboTax licence code?&lt;/A&gt; You can download the current version of TurboTax Desktop edition here: &lt;A href="https://turbotax.intuit.ca/tax/software/download" target="_blank"&gt;Choose the current TurboTax Desktop edition you need (for Windows).&lt;/A&gt; You can download older versions of TurboTax Desktop edition here:&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://turbotax.community.intuit.ca/community/product-information/help/where-can-i-download-the-cd-download-edition-of-turbotax/00/873703" target="_blank"&gt;Where can I download the Desktop edition of TurboTax?&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you are still not able to resolve your code issue,&amp;nbsp;please contact our phone support team &lt;A href="https://turbotax.community.intuit.ca/turbotax-support/en-ca/help-article/tax-return/contact-us/L1h8P3E0x_CA_en_CA?uid=lqo6gg5o" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;phone support team&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/A&gt; for more assistance.&lt;/P&gt;
