Verify your internet connection

If you have a weak internet connection, some of the information may not be sent successfully, which can result in missing checks or tax forms. We don’t support or recommend wireless internet connections because of the instability of the wireless signal, and performance on wireless networks can't be guaranteed. If you have a wired internet connection but a weak signal, contact your IT professional or internet service provider (ISP).
