What is the finsih of your pool (plaster, fiberglass, vinyl)?
What is the CYA (stabilizer level)
How many gallons is your pool?
do you have a FC reading?
Your TA does need to come down and the instructions for doing that are here

but before you do it would be best to post the above info along with the newest TC, pH, Cal, and Alk readings so the good folk on this forum will know just how far you need to lower the ALK and whether you need to bring up your CH also. The CYA level will let us know how much FC you need to maintain.
All these readings together will give us an idea as to what might be causing the water to be cloudy and the best way to help you
