If you get one of these high-fee, high-interest loans or cash advances, they’ll tuke it from your refund, you don’t get longer than that to repay.

If you have your refund directly deposited in your bank account, you should get it in 7 days to two weeks. If you get a check mailed to you it takes about an extra week.

cash advance is a bad idea. most rip you off. do you want to pay an interest of 2000% ever?. that is what the cash advance companies thrive on.
I suggest you e-file online using any of the tax prep services listed here (some cool offers) along with DIRECT DEPOSIT. You shall get refund in a few days instead of waiting weeks!. And you will save a ton avoiding cash advance loans with rip off APRs.!

To get a rapid refund from H and R block its about 7 days and it goes right to your bank account if you want. I do that. other wise it will take a lot longer for it to come.

H&R block will cut you a check that day and you can cash it anywhere. However, if the check is going to be over a certain amount Rapid Refund will take 5 to 7 days to get the money to you. If you do a regular return it will take 4 to 6 weeks to get your refund check from the government.

Cash advance places are in the business to make money and most of them charge excessive interest. Most only give you 1 to 2 weeks to pay back the money before the interest kicks in. You should try at all costs to avoid using a cash advance place.

The interest rates for payday loan places and refund anticipation loans varies between 900% APR and 2,600% APR.

It might speed up your refund by a week. Less if you use Direct Deposit.

If you’re about to be evicted, have your home foreclosed upon, or your car repossessed or if you need $$$ to eat, get the RAL. Otherwise, just wait a few days.
