How is National Cash Credit different from most other Tax Anticipation Loan Lenders
Since you do not file your taxes through National Cash Credit, The amount you may be eligible to receive through a Tax Anticipation Loan depends on several key factors. Primarily, we consider the size of your income, not your refund.
By doing things this way, we help keep your most valuable information, your tax information, safe by not even asking for copies of any of your taxs or tax documents and we don't even require that you prove how much your refund will be. It is not just about the refund amount; your individual tax information actually plays no role in your loan determination. While it is not recommended, you can apply for a tax anticipation loan before you file your taxes.
That's right, you can get approved for a tax loan before you file your taxes and therefor before the IRS has even accepted your tax return.
We do not receive your refund from the IRS, you do. Another advantage of doing it this way is that your entire refund is deposited into your checking account by the IRS, it does not come to us. While IRS refunds are generally issued by the IRS within 21 days of e-filing acceptance, you can apply for a loan now and receive money by tomorrow.
Other criteria used by our lenders might include your credit profile and current financial situation. These aspects help in assessing your eligibility and determine how much you can receive. It's worth noting that you might not qualify for the highest available amount if certain criteria don't align with the lender's standards.

1). How does this work? It works like any other short-term financial lending product or service. You apply, get approved, get cash into your bank account but you replay the loan with your tax refund. By the way, you're not required to file your taxes prior to applying. Our lenders never ask for copies of your tax documents so you can apply for a Tax Anticipation Loan and know that your tax information will remain safe. A direct lender will lend you the amount you estimate for your tax return. In return, the borrower will pay a small fee. Once the borrower receives their check from the IRS, they can repay the loan. Since National Cash Credit lenders do not ask for copies of your tax returns and do not file your taxes for you they must set your repayment date to be on your pay date and it is up to you to file on time to have your refund in your bank account by the time the loan is due.
2). Will I qualify? As long as you’re employed, 18 or older, and have a bank account, you can qualify. We can't know for certain if you'll get a refund, so we base the loan on your income. All applications are considered, so we encourage every to apply. Bad credit never determines whether or not an application gets approved or denied.
3). How long does it take to receive the cash? It takes one business day. Our direct lenders will deposit the cash directly into your bank account once you’ve been approved. The entire process is straightforward and easy.
