Question

Why am I paying to receive my return 5 days early, but i have gotten it quicker in years passed without paying TurboTax 150$ extra. Anyone else feeling ripped off?

I'm paying TT 150$ extra to do absolutely nothing. I feel this is worth a lawsuit

    Due to PATH Act, the IRS holds refunds for EITC/ACTC customers until March 3.  You should still receive your refund 5 days early. This date is calculated based on 5 days prior to when the IRS releases your refund.

     

    Here is more information on the 5 Day Early option: 5 Days Early

     

    Please note: If your federal refund is deposited into your selected bank account less than 5 days before the IRS refund settlement date (the date it would have arrived if sent from the IRS directly), then you will not pay the 5 Days Early
