      I filed my taxes and received less than what's on my return and then my state is missing which was sent in February. I called my state tax office and read my account and routing numbers and they said they were incorrect and that the tax service direct deposit information was on my tax return. Please send me my money.

      Hello and awesome day!



      I am sorry to hear of the misunderstanding between one of our clients, *************************. I have gone through her client folder and have attached detailed documents from the time we were able to service *****************:



      On January 28, 2023 we started a return for ***************** which she was to initially receive $3,263.00 for federal, $314 from state of Virginia, $77 from ****************.

      ****** was given a $300 advance from ATC Income Tax as well as a $250 advance from **************** ************ Her filing fees totaled $614.90, please see attachment for fee details. Upon adding the two approved Refund Advances, **************** fees totaled to $914.90. This amount would be reimbursed from any filed refunds received. Upon completion of the tax preparation, bank advance applications, and approvals it was explained to **************** at the time of filing that these amounts will be paid via refunds. (see page **** of attached document). Per the tax preparer, **************** agreed to the terms and conditions and choose to sign the forms to proceed with the process. All appropriate were photocopied for our files, and the originals were given back to ****************. In addition to the original documents, **************** was also given the terms and conditions of filing via the refund along with the terms for receiving advances. upon the *** processing, it was determined that ****** had a debt of $149.41 and they released $3,113.59. (see document)



      **************** received $3,113.59 on 2/18/23. The state of Virginia released her refund of $314 and $63 for the state of Georgia refund and a charge of $14 is added to the fee for each disbursement processed. (see information attached). After further review, it was determined that all funds were allocated and paid appropriately to **************** account. 



      Although our records indicate no wrongdoing on this account, we will reach out to **************** to see if she have any other concerns.  I can be reached at ************ or by email at ********************

      Spoke to **************** in regards to the account information on her tax paperwork. It was explained to **************** that since she opted to have the bank and prep fees paid directly through her refund that the funds would have to go to MetaBank for processing first. MetaBank in turn set up a temporary account specifically for **************** that includes her social security number, which she saw on her paperwork. Once her refund is received into that account it would be forwarded to her bank account she provided us with minus the bank and prep fees. This was explained to **************** and she understood the process.
