DO NOT DO THIS! Biggest scam ever! Turbo Tax can NOT get you money 5 days sooner! They are NOT above the IRS! Typically after the IRS sends the money to TurboTax they send it to you within a few days anyway! So you’re basically paying Turbo Tax to do what they already do. It never takes over 5 days. So they literally did a bait and switch with TONS OF PEOPLE and so many fell for this lie! Many people won’t even start getting approvals from the IRS until Feb 15 if you have certain credits! Which wasn’t mentioned. Probably somewhere in super tiny print somewhere. But. It wasn’t on the page where you select the option to get the refund early. We filed on Jan 8, and signed up for the 5 days early. We have yet to even get a date from the IRS of when we will get ours. Today marks 21 business days (29 actual days) since we filed! I thought it was 21 days from when you FILED! Because that would make sense. But no. It’s 21 days from the date the IRS gives you. Which nobody with those credits will even get a date until their taxes start getting approved on the 15th of Feb. Just save your $25 and wait the 5 days. This is the last year that we will ever use Turbo Tax though. Big scam. Not real.
