REFUND ADVANCE LOANS
No-one in the user forum can see your information, so we cannot tell you why you did not qualify for the advance. It might have something to do with the state you live in, or you might have some other disqualifying reason—-we cannot see nor can we exert any control over it.

Refund Advance eligibility
Here are some of the eligibility requirements to qualify for a Refund Advance loan:
The refund loan will not be available until later in January when you can e-file your 2021 return. The money for the loan is not given to you until the IRS ACCEPTS your e-file. The IRS will not begin to accept e-files until January 24.
You cannot apply for the refund loan. It has to be offered to you, and you have to agree to the terms—-which have changed since last year——so read some information——and pay attention to the details in the fine print … https://turbotax.intuit.com/refund-advance/
The same is happening to me TurboTax said if I chose the credit karma spend option that I can get an advance with 1-2hrs of the irs accepting my refund. I got an email saying that I was accepted so where is the advance ?
The IRS won't start Accepting efilings until Jan 24, so please check back next week.
Once the return is accepted for processing by the IRS then even though you were pre approved for an advance the bank can still deny it ... they should send you an email and/or letter in the mail.
