Sorry no.  There was a flex loan but they stopped that one.  There is the Refund Advance......

 

Application for TurboTax Refund Advance opened on December 19, 2025. You will receive a final decision of whether you are approved for a Refund Advance after you file your taxes and the IRS accepts your return. You won't receive your funds until the IRS starts accepting returns, which is typically late January.

Sorry---there is no refund advance loan that you can get from TurboTax today.   For a few weeks, TurboTax was offering a “Flex Advance” loan, but that program has now been permanently closed for the rest of the year.

 

In January there will be a refund advance loan that you may be eligible for when you are ready to file; no money is issued to you until your e-file is accepted by the IRS.  The IRS will not begin to accept 2025 e-files until late January.
