All you need is a current pay statement and valid government-issued photo ID. Plus, you don’t even need to be an H&R Block tax client to apply.
Access funds.

Make payments.
You must make minimum monthly payments and pay down your balance to $0 by Feb. 15 to remain in good standing.
Pay down to zero.
Choose H&R Block to file your taxes, and you can elect to pay your line down to zero with a portion of your refund. Tax preparation is not required, other pay down options are available.
