Ok that makes sense and it sort of works but, after I reset my password which was part of the plan, and going back to get a new app-specific password, all attempts to enter the verification code gives me a 'try again later' message.

Well, if this is Apple TFA then the system should ask you if you  want to 
approve before actually generating a 6 digit code. In that case, you should 
only say OK on one system and you will only get one code. Most other systems 
that don’t have a dedicated app such as duo mobile or Microsoft Authenticator 
will send a text message, in which case the same number will show up on both 
your phone messages app and the Macintoshes messages app.

I do appreciate Microsoft Authenticator where I don’t even need to unlock the 
phone or copy any information. I just hard press on the notification and I get 
a approve or deny menu pop up.

   Running Mojave. I had occasion to deal with this today on the Mac. I 
received a verification code on both the Mac and on the iPhone. Does it matter 
which one I enter?
