Advance refund application option not available

So from reading the community board, are you guys saying that you should wait until after theIRS starts accepting filings to get an advance? The option was there when I filled it out but nothing after that point.

Here are a couple things to check:

  • If you are using a TurboTax partner affiliate link to use the software, the Refund Advance will not be available.
  • If you select the 5 Day Early Refund Delivery, you will not see the Refund Advance option, but you can return to the refund selection page and find all the options listed.
