Refund loan after filing

Is there any way to go back and request a refund loan if I have already e-filed? I did so on the 15th of January and am having it direct deposited to my bank account. Obviously it is still pending at the moment. I neglected to choose a refund loan, but am having second thoughts now and would like to. Is there any way to do so, or do I just have to wait it out now?

Once you file the tax return you are no longer eligible for a refund advance.

Hello I was wondering once I received my TurboTax card and activated it and registered it if you could tell me if I have money from a loan being put on there

If you qualify for Refund Advance and are approved for the Turbo Visa Debit Card, you’ll be notified by email of the approved amount and you’ll be able to start spending online, typically within 48 hours of the IRS accepting your return. You will need to check your Turbo Visa Debit account to see if the money has been deposited.

Thank you. The only one who actually answered my question lol. Seems like most of the other "answers" are just pre populated responses to general topics.

Unfortunately, this offer was available until February 7, 2020, or until available funds were exhausted, whichever came first. You also needed to apply before you filed to be eligible. The below link has all updated information about the advance loan.

No where during initial filing does it state or ask about a refund loan.  They should really change that.  There was no information given at all.  I searched it the other day and then had to call just to find out details and that the opportunity ended February 7th.  Which in itself is crazy because most people are still receiving W2's in the mail.
