This guide covers the common troubleshooting steps to try, including clearing your cache and checking your system requirements, so you can get back to filing with minimal delay. It's written for both first-time users and experienced filers who hit an unexpected loading issue.
01Try common troubleshooting methods first

02Clear your cache and cookies
Clearing your browser's cache and cookies can resolve loading issues caused by outdated stored data.
03Check your system requirements and settings
Confirm your browser and device meet TurboTax's requirements, since compatibility issues can prevent the app from loading properly.

If the issue persists, review additional settings or try an alternate browser to isolate what's causing the problem.
Frequently asked questions
Why won't TurboTax load in my browser?
Common causes include outdated cache and cookies, browser compatibility issues, or a temporary connectivity problem, all of which this guide's troubleshooting steps address.
Does clearing my cache delete my TurboTax return data?

Should I try a different browser if TurboTax still won't load?
Yes, switching browsers can help determine whether the issue is specific to your original browser's settings or a broader connectivity problem.
