If I filed with Turbo Tax...

how do I apply for a refund? I've been using this software for years, but I don't know how to apply for  the advance?

As you complete the FILE tab, if you are eligible,  an advance MAY be offered to you.   You cannot apply for it.

@Toni93 Yes. You cannot do it after you have filed.
