Mine took 2 days. After a few hours I figured I just wasn’t approved. It’s definitely not instant.

My first year using CK. I didnt apply for RAL but I used CK Because TT said I can get my refund up to 5 days earlier using CK. Can anyone confirm this?

@Faithhopenmommy I got that message. I called Credit Karma and was told because I closed my Credit Karma account last year, that is why I am getting that message. She said you can not reopen it. I also tried to cancel my account and open a new one and still got the message. The bank for Money Spend will only allow one account. It’s stupid to me. You can go to a real bank and reopen your account. So I can’t apply for an advanced.

My return was accepted today in a test batch and I already got my RAL from CK. PATHer here so the rest of my refund waits another few weeks.

@Faithhopenmommy
yes i had that cannot verify information error. I went into my credit karma account settings and changed my name to exactly how it is on w2 ( short name instead of legal name) then i tried again and it worked. good luck i hope you get it figured out

I got the RAL through them this year for the first time. We’ll see how it goes.
