The only reason I went to TurboTax this year was to get an advance. It only qualified me for 250 BUT I still could've really used that and once I got accepted, it denied that little advance. If I would have known, I never would have gone to TurboTax. And THEN, because of the advance I SUPPOSEDLY qualified for, I had to go through Credit Karma for my deposit and it's just so inconvenient. Should have stuck with FreeTaxUSA, not gotten my hopes up for the advance and deposited to my regular bank.
