Who said you could get a refund advance through TurboTax before the tax return was accepted by the IRS?

That is Not correct.

 

See this TurboTax support FAQ for a refund advance - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/refund-advance/L52Mg0G5u_US_en_US?uid=lqcr6qji

it was an option that appeared on my screen when I was choosing how to receive my refund, after i selected the advanced refund with credit  karma, it appeared and it stated , would you like to receive your immediately in a min without having to wait for IRS acceptance, and then I clicked on the approval selection, then it said something about would be available in February I believe,  kinda odd, so that’s why I was asking, obviously it was made for someone to have that option, but then never saw again being advertised

And I was also already approved for the rapid refund up to $1000

The Advance Refund loan won't be available until after January 1 and just when you are ready to file.  And only if they offered it to you.  You can't self select it.  Then you don't get it until AFTER your efile is Accepted by the IRS.

It says......after IRS acceptance.
