JERSEY CITY, N.J., Dec. 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Jackson Hewitt Tax Service® continues to lead the industry with Refund Advance by offering qualified taxpayers the ability to choose the Refund Advance that's right for them. The tax services provider has announced that qualified clients could now choose among several Refund Advance options provided by MetaBank®.
Early Refund Advance is available to new and existing clients who could access up to $400 before W-2s are even available. Clients can stop by a Jackson Hewitt office with a pay stub, or other income verification, as early as December 19, 2018 to complete tax preparation and apply for the Early Refund Advance.
Once W-2s are available in January, qualified clients will have the choice between two Refund Advance options: the No Fee Refund Advance and the Go Big Refund Advance.
The No Fee Refund Advance offers clients up to $3,500 with no fee and 0% APR. The Go Big Refund Advance is a new product with larger loan amounts offered between $1,000 and $7,000, has a fixed APR of 35.9% for the life of the loan, and has interest accrual capped at 45 days. Clients who qualify for a Go Big Refund Advance will automatically be qualified for a No Fee Refund Advance and will always have the choice between both options.
Starting December 3, clients can visit JacksonHewitt.com to see if they could prequalify for a Refund Advance. All Refund Advance loan options will be automatically repaid from a client's tax refund.
"We listened to our clients and learned that they wanted access to larger loan amounts and more options, so we worked with MetaBank® to create the Go Big Refund Advance to help our clients get access to more money when they need it most," said Alan D. Ferber, CEO of Jackson Hewitt. "We know how important Refund Advances can be for hard-working Americans and we wanted to give our clients more ways to get access to money they need faster."
