Need verification code--I installed iOS 14.2 on my iphoneSE--did not get emailed code

I installed iOS 14.2 on my iphoneSE 2 days ago. I did not receive an email from Apple with my verification code (or if Apple sent it, I inadvertently deleted it). How can I get Apple to send (or resend) the verification code. Without it I'm unable to get into my phone. I am desperate, as I need the phone for work.

iPhone SE, iOS 14

Hello m-i-c-k-i-e,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!


Based on what you mentioned, it sounds like you are trying to add a new device to your Apple ID. This can require a verification. An authentication code is usually sent to an alternate device that was already signed in on your account, but if you don't have that, you'll want to follow the additional options here: Get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication.


Best wishes!
