A refund advance loan is a type of short-term loan that allows you to receive a portion of your expected tax refund before the IRS issues it.
This tax refund advance loans part of the refund immediately before you file your taxes. This can be helpful if you need money quickly to cover unexpected expenses.
To get a refund advance loan, you’ll typically need to provide your tax return information, including your expected refund amount.
The lender will then assess your eligibility and offer you a loan amount based on your anticipated refund. Once the IRS issues your refund, the lender will deduct the loan amount and any associated fees from your refund.
You can get the advance either on a Netspend® Visa® Prepaid Card 2 or by direct deposit 3 to your bank account.
The prepaid card gives you instant access to your money.
The refund tax loan will be repaid automatically when you receive your full tax refund.
Whether you need to cover holiday expenses or get ahead for the new year, the December Dollars is here to help.
Get a portion of your tax refund early, helping you stay financially flexible during the season.
