What is a Tax Refund Advance?

Waiting for your tax return can be tough — especially when you could use that money, like, right now.

For those who just can’t wait, there are tax refund advances.

What is a Tax Refund Advance?

A tax refund advance is just what it sounds like — a quick, short-term loan that helps you get your tax return money early. The loan, taken out against your tax refund, is ready on the same day you apply — a big difference when you consider how long it can take for the IRS to process returns.

Your tax refund advance comes as an additional service to tax preparation and filing. When you file your taxes with us at World, you can also get a tax refund advance.

What are some reasons to get a Tax Refund Advance?

  • When you need funds fast.

  • There’s no additional cost.
