To find the Refund Processing feature, you'll need to have chosen the e-file option and you'll need to have a federal refund coming.

Note: This option is not available for the TurboTax Mobile App directly.  Please see Can I pay with my refund using the Turbo Tax Mobile App ? for additional information.

Here's how to pay with your federal refund:

  1. Open your online return, if you're not already in it.
    (To do this, sign in to TurboTax and then click the orange
    Take me to my return button.)
  2. Click File in the upper right corner and proceed to the Just a few steps left screen.
  3. On this screen, click Start here or Revisit for the first step.
  4. Click Select Payment Method on the next screen, and then Pay with your federal refund on the screen after that.
