Need Your Refund Faster?
Ask about a Refund Advance when you file with Carnival Tax.
A Refund Advance is an optional tax refund-related loan provided by Pathward, N.A., Member FDIC, through Refund Advantage. Approval and loan amount are subject to eligibility and underwriting. A Refund Advance is not your actual tax refund. Availability, eligibility, and terms vary. Ask us for current details.

What Our Clients Say
Every year I end up owing and last year I paid $1,000, so I was not trying to do that again. I do gig work and make content and had no idea my miles, camera stuff, and editing apps counted. Carnival Tax went through all of it and I got $1,500 back this time. Definitely coming back next year.
BrandonAtlanta, GAI was a victim of tax fraud. Dash and his team really helped me. He didn’t just help me with my taxes, he helped me file the right paperwork with the IRS, get a PIN number, contact the people I needed to contact and told me what I needed to do.
Every time I got a letter from the IRS, I sent it straight to him. He handled it, explained it to me and fixed what needed to be fixed.
LisaNew Orleans, LAMy realtor referred me to Carnival Tax. I never filed taxes a day in my life.
Dash funny as hell but he broke everything down to me about the IRS, my back taxes, what I owed and how all that worked. He worked it out with the IRS so I could settle up one time and be done with it.
MarcusHouston, TXAfter 25 years in healthcare, I wanted to open a nonprofit free clinic, but I had no idea everything that went into starting one. The attorneys I talked to quoted high prices, and friends who used online services had nobody to call when questions came up later.
Dash and his team walked me through every step, and I still call them to this day.
