Hello! I filed taxes a couple of days ago and was just accepted today. I paid TurboTax the $25 to get my refund early and it gives me an estimated date of 2/11 for a deposit. However, I did claim the ACTC and I know that doing so causes the IRS to hold your refund due to the PATH Act. Does TurboTax take this into consideration when offering the early refund? Is there any chance that I will get it before 2/15 because I paid extra or will I just be refunded that amount? When I filed, I was under the impression that I would get it five days earlier than the date I was given but I don't even think that's possible with the PATH Act?
I guess I'm trying to just get a timeframe for when this will come because I'm a little confused now. It seems like something that TurboTax should be taking into account when offering the early refunds? Thanks in advance.
