Cash advance using tax refund

Looking to get some cash off my credit card-using my tax refund.  Can I make a payment to my account now and then claim it as a payment and get it back on my refund?

No.  The advance loan program ended on February 15.

So if I go on the irs website and make a payment today and the claim that amount as an additional payment-what will happen?

Sorry---but this is not making any sense.   How do you think making a payment to the IRS now will allow you to get money from your credit card?

Have you filed your return yet?  I guess if you make a payment and call it a payment with an extension to file it will be a credit on your tax return and increase your refund.  But you won't get it until the IRS processes your return and sends it to you.  Which might take longer this year.
