"This is financial advisor Patrick Munro talking about how to setup rapid refund. Rapid refund is a type of a tax refund situation that occurs with individuals that have a very easy to file tax return and various tax franchises that are on basically any street corner in America offer this type of a service for individuals that will receive a check for their money right at the time of filing their taxes. That's the good news. The bad news is that the individuals that are receiving the tax return and issuing that check are keeping a major portion of the dollars that do ultimately come back from the IRS. And that is the commission, or the fee, that is payable as a result. Governmental authorities have been cracking down on several people that have abused this practice most notably in inner city neighborhoods where the rapid refund can approach as much as fifty percent of the actual refund of the tax payer and this is in violation of several laws. So if you're an individual that is going to be filing your taxes and you're looking forward to a refund, try to exercise patience and wait for your tax refund to arrive back, your refund check to arrive back from the IRS. Why pay unnecessary fees. This is financial advisor Patrick Munro talking about how to setup rapid refund."
