Not all consumers will qualify for a loan or for the maximum loan amount. If approved, your loan will be for one of ten amounts: $250, $500, $750, $1,000, $1,500, $2,000, $2,500, $3,000, $3,500, or $4,000.

Your loan amount will be based on a portion of your anticipated federal refund to a maximum of 50% of that refund amount.

You won't receive a final decision of whether you are approved for the loan until after you file your taxes and the IRS has opened. Loan repayment is deducted from your federal tax refund and reduces the subsequent refund amount paid directly to you.

If approved, your Refund Advance will be deposited into your Credit Karma Money™ Spend checking account, typically within 4 minutes after the IRS acceptance of your e-filed federal return. You may access your funds online through a virtual card and your physical Credit Karma Visa Debit Card* should arrive in 7–14  days.
