Key requirements before you log in
The portal only accepts accounts tied to a registered employer, claims adjuster, or claimant. You'll need:
- Texas Workers' Compensation account number (issued by the Texas Department of Insurance)
- Active email address linked to the account
- Secure password meeting the 8‑character minimum, including a letter, number, and special character
Having these ready prevents the common "invalid credentials" error that stalls many first‑time users.

If you forget your password, use the "Forgot Password?" link to receive a reset email. The reset link expires after 24 hours for security.
Troubleshooting common issues
Most login problems stem from mismatched account numbers or outdated passwords. Verify the account number on any official TWC correspondence. Clear your browser cache or try a different browser if the page repeatedly reloads. For locked accounts after multiple failed attempts, contact the TWC Help Desk at 1‑800‑252‑3439.
