Refund advance

[Jojo89]

When I get ready to file it usually asks me about the refund advance but this year it didn’t ask. I’m wondering is it still to early? Or do I need to wait until February 12th to file for it to ask me about the advance? I’m getting a refund of 9,000 back.

The loan has to be offered to you --- you cannot apply for it.   If you have already e-filed it is too late.
