Is there any way I can still apply for the refund advance although I’ve already filed my taxes with TurboTax?

Unfortunately, you can't apply for the Refund Advance after you file your taxes.

What if I amend(change) my taxes even tho I don’t have anything to fix or add I just missed where I apply for the advance I guess ?

No you can only apply for the advance before you file the original return.

I feel like TurboTax kinda doesn't care about making sure customers get what they need, I tried getting the refund advance 2 years in a row.  Both years I had an offset under 50 dollars and it totally ruined my chances of an advance. I'm getting over 5 thousand back and the worst part is that I paid my offset off just so nothing could stop me from getting it and I still didn't get it. My family and I were really needing it bad but I couldn't get any help from anyone. I couldn't even afford paying the 45 dollar offset but I did because I thought for sure I would get the advance. And I definitely wouldn't have gotten premium if I knew I wasn't getting it and I definitely wouldn't be having it put in my credit carma spending account. I was told by TurboTax that it's up to credit carma but it's not, credit carma and the actual bank says it's up to TurboTax to approve us. But I'm probably a last time customer. They literally couldn't even help me with my state return.

This will be the last time I use TurboTax. They tease you with the idea that you'll get an advance but never do you. I met every criteria to be approved and 2 years in a row I am denied. I have been with them for multiple years and also had an existing account with Credit Karma. My return is well over the $500 yet I am denied. I'm done with being let down. What perks do they even offer that I can't get else where? I am very disappointed. I really needed that money right now.

I don't believe there's a refund advance.. they use that as a tactic to get you to file with them and create a credit karma acct, while also depositing your entire refund into a credit karma acct (because who in their right mind would use a credit karma acct otherwise, SMH) i have clicked the link to use TT to file just for the advance, and nowhere at all does it even give you the option to get an advance, i literally didnt see it anywhere while filing.. then afterwards, you google it just to find these answers lol SCAM SCAM SCAM tactic because they know folks need it fast...

Yes they charged me for using the help option this year. But it was the only option on my screen I had to be able to do my taxes I didn’t have a free option. I won’t be using them again very disappointed I’ve only used them but never again.
