  3. A text box will appear where you can type in the question or concern you need help with. Be as detailed as you can when you write your question so the specialist on the other end knows what you need help with. When you’re finished with your question, tap the “Talk to a specialist” option. [8]
    • Keep your question under 170 characters since that’s the limit of the text box.

    Warning: The “Connect Me” screen-sharing feature requires TurboTax Deluxe and cannot be accessed with the free edition. However, you can still provide a call-back number through the app.

  5. If you’re having a problem that isn’t related to the app, then click “No Thanks” to access the callback feature. Type in your phone number so a TurboTax agent knows how to reach you. After you type in the number, click “OK, sounds good” to set up the callback. An agent will contact you as soon as they are available. [9]
