After you file

Not the usual refund anticipation loan in the traditional sense, but a variant.   And not all filers will be offered the opportunity.

TurboTax is offering a "Refund Advance" which may be offered to certain users who efile their returns and choose to have their refunds deposited to a Turbo Prepaid VISA Card.  The Refund Advance is a 0% loan in increments of $250 up to $1,000.   The advance is not available until after one has efiled the return and the IRS has accepted it.  You can read more in the FAQ below, but there is no way to self-select into the Refund Advance offer.   Some users will see the option show up on the screen where they choose how they want to receive their refund.

Additional terms and restrictions apply.  There are several reasons why one may receive the offer.  See this FAQ for more details:
