    Hi Samjuneja,

     

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you are not receiving the verification code via SMS. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

     

    Get help using iCloud Keychain - Apple Support

    If you didn't receive the verification code via SMS

    1. Make sure that you have a strong cellular network connection on your phone.
    2. Make sure that your phone number can get SMS messages. To check, ask someone to send you a text message.
    3. Make sure that the correct phone number is associated with your account: 
         
      • On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap Settings > iCloud > Keychain > Advanced. (In iOS 7, tap Settings > iCloud > Account > Keychain.) Make sure the phone number under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number. 
      •  
      • On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Options next to Keychain. (In OS X Mavericks or earlier, click iCloud, then click Account Details.) Make sure the phone number under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.

    If you can't access a device that has iCloud Keychain enabled, contact Apple Support and verify your identity to get help setting up iCloud Keychain.

     

    Cheers
