Chime Tax Refund Advance - How long after IRS approval for deposit?
I filed my taxes yesterday and got approved right away. Anyone know the timeline for Chime's tax refund advance to hit your account?

I work with tax prep and can help. Chime typically processes refund advances within 1-2 business days after IRS acceptance. Keep in mind this isn't your actual refund - just the advance. The full refund will come later when the IRS processes everything.

Hey! Instead of playing the waiting game, you should check out taxr.ai - it costs $4.99 but it'll analyze your transcript and tell you exactly when to expect your advance and full refund. I use it every tax season and its amazing https://taxr.ai

Why even get an advance? Just wait for the real refund and avoid the fees lol

Chime usually deposits the advance pretty quick once IRS accepts your return! In my experience it's been 1-3 business days max. Just keep an eye on your app for notifications. The advance is nice to get some quick cash while waiting for the full refund to process through the IRS system.

•Thanks for sharing your experience! That's really helpful to know it's usually that quick. I'm hoping mine comes through soon - the waiting is always the hardest part 😅

Mine took exactly 24 hours last year with Chime! Filed on a Tuesday morning, got IRS acceptance that same day, and the advance hit my account Wednesday evening. Just make sure your direct deposit info is correct in both your tax software and Chime account. Good luck! 🤞

•That's super helpful timing info! 24 hours sounds amazing compared to some of the horror stories I've heard with other banks. Did you get any notification from Chime before it actually hit, or did it just show up? I'm always paranoid about checking my balance every 5 minutes 😂
