Jackson Hewitt Tax Pros are gearing up for the upcoming tax refund season by enhancing their expertise and staying updated with the latest changes in tax laws. This year, the changes could potentially mean larger refunds for many taxpayers, creating excitement among clients who look forward to maximizing their refunds. Jackson Hewitt’s Tax Pros are eager to assist clients in securing the largest refund possible, symbolized by the playful and optimistic Refund Jeans, which are designed specifically for this season.
Kim Hudson, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of Jackson Hewitt Tax Services, expressed the company’s approach to tax season, saying, “We take tax season very seriously, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have some fun. Refund Jeans are a playful reminder that when you file with Jackson Hewitt, our Tax Pros work hard so you get the biggest refund you deserve. If you are expecting a big refund, you might as well have the pockets to match.”
However, these Refund Jeans won’t be available in retail stores. Instead, Jackson Hewitt will be hosting a sweepstakes exclusively on Instagram, where 100 participants will have the chance to win a free pair of these unique jeans. Starting from January 15, 2026, through February 11, 2026, fans can enter the sweepstakes by following Jackson Hewitt on Instagram and engaging with specific posts related to the jeans. Each week, 25 winners will be randomly selected from eligible entries.
To participate, here’s what fans need to do: follow Jackson Hewitt’s official Instagram account, like the Refund Jeans post, comment on what they would do with their biggest tax refund, tag a friend who could use “Big Refund Energy,” and include the hashtags #BigRefundEnergy and #SweepsEntry. Full details, rules, and eligibility requirements will be posted on Jackson Hewitt’s social media channels and their website.
In addition to the fun of winning Refund Jeans, Jackson Hewitt is offering a Tax Refund Advance loan for the first time throughout the entire tax season. Clients who qualify can access up to $3,500 within minutes, allowing them to address immediate financial needs ahead of receiving their federal tax refund. Unlike previous years where this program was limited to mid-February, this year’s continuous availability aims to better support clients when they need it most.
Taxpayers can apply for the Tax Refund Advance loan at any participating Jackson Hewitt office and selected kiosk locations within Walmart. They have the flexibility to decide whether they want the funds loaded onto a prepaid card for immediate use or deposited directly into their bank accounts, though finance charges apply.
Jackson Hewitt continues to emphasize its commitment to helping clients maximize their tax refunds and streamline the filing process. With more than 5,100 locations nationwide and a focus on simple, low-cost solutions, Jackson Hewitt aims to make tax filing straightforward and accessible. For those looking to file taxes this season, appointments can be booked online, and the application for the Tax Refund Advance is free, with no impact on credit scores.
Whether it’s through the fun of winning a unique pair of jeans or the immediate financial relief with tax advance loans, Jackson Hewitt is dedicated to enhancing the tax filing experience for its clients this season.
