No because you need to e-file your return and it's accepted. Also, the IRS will not open e-filing until 1/23/2024 (as of today).  see this link for additional requirements and read the frequently asked questions

Refund advance loans are not available from TurboTax at this time.   TurboTax’s loan program typically starts in January and ends in mid-February.   Your tax return cannot be filed until later in January.   One of the options you can select when you are ready to file is to get a refund advance loan,    You do not receive any money until your e-file has been accepted by the IRS—-and the IRS will not begin to accept e-files until at least mid to late January.

 

And…..do not try to prepare a tax return without ALL of your income documents; you must include every 2023 W-2 on the same tax return.  Employers have until the end of January to issue W-2’s.   Wait until you have all of your W-2’s.  Clients, schools, banks and other financial institutions may not have tax documents available until early February.  ALL of your tax documents must be entered on the same Form 1040; do not file unless you have entered everything.
