Before electronic filing, when it would take several weeks to process a paper tax return, a RAL was an attractive timely option to a family in need of money. But with today's electronic filing, refunds are available within 3-5 business days from the state and within 10 days from the IRS. The state and IRS offer the same speedy benefit without any cost.  more
