In your TaxSlayer Pro Account Hub, when completing the Santa Barbara TPG bank application you have the opportunity to opt in to their Check Administration Fee program. This program adds a fee to the taxpayer's refund transfer to offset the costs of printing checks.
The additional fee is $12. It is paid out of the taxpayer's refund and is delineated in the Refund Transfer disclosures. The fee is split three ways ($4 each) between the ERO, the bank, and TaxSlayer Pro. It is not charged on Fast Cash Advances, however.
The Check Administration Fee program can be opted into in the Santa Barbara TPG bank application under Step 3 "Additional Fees". Select Yes in the dropdown menu under the question "Would you like to opt-in to the Check Administration Fee Program?" before clicking Save.
