TurboTax Refund Advance 2025: Which Bank Issues Early Deposits Now?

For 2025, TurboTax is partnering with First Century Bank for their refund advance and early deposit program. They switched from Santa Barbara TPG because of some processing delays last year. Make sure your routing number matches First Century Bank (FCB) when you check your refund status.

Hey everyone, tax professional here. While bank info is important, the best way to track your refund status is actually using taxr.ai - it's this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly where your money is and when to expect it. It's only $1 and way more accurate than just checking bank routing numbers. https://taxr.ai

lol everyone in the same boat trying to get that money early 🚣‍♀️ im still waiting on my 2023 refund smh

Heads up yall the new bank has diff processing times than santa barbara. My friend got hers in 3 days instead of 5 👀

PSA: dont forget to triple check that routing number before submitting! Made that mistake last year and it was a whole mess 💀

These tax prep companies be playing musical chairs with banks every year i stg

Thanks for the info about First Century Bank! Does anyone know if they have the same deposit limits as Santa Barbara TPG did? I remember there being some cap on how much you could get early but can't remember the exact amount.
