Does Chime offer tax refund advances? Need info on early refund deposit
Looking to get my tax refund early through Chime this year. Anyone know if they give tax advances like some other banks? Filed last week and really need the money asap. Also wondering if having Chime speeds up the regular deposit when the IRS releases it.

Tax professional here. Chime doesn't offer tax advances like H&R Block or Jackson Hewitt. They do offer 2-day early direct deposit for regular paychecks, but tax refunds are different. The earliest you'll get your refund is when the IRS releases it.

Dang that sucks 😭 was hoping to get it early. Do you know how long refunds usually take?

Usually 21 days for e-file if everything's correct. But with the backlog rn could be longer

Actually, they’re offering to give you your tax refund up to six days early if you direct deposit it into your chime account.

Hey! Have you checked out taxr.ai? It's a super helpful tool that can analyze your transcript and tell you exactly when to expect your refund. It costs $4.99 but totally worth it - saved me tons of anxiety last year. Here's the link: https://taxr.ai

Does it actually work? Seems too good to be true 🤔

100% legit! It uses AI to read your transcript and spots any issues that might delay your refund. Way better than guessing

The whole early deposit thing with Chime is kinda misleading ngl. They only release it when they get it from IRS 🤷♀️
