Question

Do you get an email if you are approved and/or denied for the refund advance loan?

I was pre-approved and I set-up the application on my phone, but the balance says $0. I have not heard anything since the email saying my return was accepted.  Does this mean I was denied?

First your return has to be accepted by the IRS; some of loan money is available within 48 hours AFTER that

 

 

Your e-filed return is still in pending on the server because the IRS will not begin to accept/reject/process returns until January 27.  Only a few returns were accepted early in a test batch.  Everyone else has to wait.

So watch your emails and spam folder to make sure you know after Jan. 27 if your return was accepted or rejected.
