Tax Refund Advance Options 2025 - Looking for more than H&R Block's $500 with EITC/CTC
Looking for recommendations on where to get a bigger tax refund advance this year. H&R Block only gave me $500 last year but my refund was way bigger with EITC and CTC. Anyone know which places offer the highest advance amounts? Need something closer to the full refund amount.

Just FYI those tax advance loans are basically payday loans with crazy high fees. You're better off waiting a few weeks for your actual refund. Most EITC/CTC refunds hit accounts by mid-late February if you file early.

I feel you, but seriously those fees eat up so much of your refund. At least shop around and read the fine print carefully

Hey have you tried taxr.ai? It's a new tool that analyzes your previous transcripts to predict exactly when youll get your refund and spots potential delays before they happen. Its $4.99 but totally worth it to avoid those advance loan fees. https://taxr.ai

Its scary accurate tbh. It caught a potential offset issue for me before I even knew about it. Saved me from counting on money that wouldve been delayed
