Deferred Seasonal Payment Example
Let’s take a look at this example to illustrate how this helpful program works. Jane Doe lives near Raleigh, North Carolina, and is in the market for a used car. She received approval for financing at AutoMax – and you will, too – but needs to make a $1,500 down payment on the car she’s fallen in love with. Luckily for Jane, it’s Tax Max time! A financial specialist at AutoMax determines Jane likely will receive a $4,000 tax refund, qualifying her for the Tax Max Program. Jane uses the $500 down payment program to pay just $500 toward her used car purchase today, because her tax refund will be more than three times the remainder of her deferred seasonal payment. Jane makes a note of her due date to pay $1,000, her deferred seasonal payment, on the agreed upon date in her contract (no later than April 1, 2025). After she receives all her tax documents, Jane returns to AutoMax to receive her free tax preparation through Tax Refund Services (TRS). When her tax refund comes in, she pays the deferred seasonal payment, $1,000.
What Your $500 Down Payment Includes
Our Tax Max Program requires a down payment of an affordable $500. This applies toward the purchase price of the used car for sale you choose from our lots. The down payment does not include taxes, tags, license, and document fees which is required at the time of sale.
Who should apply for the Tax Max Program?
- Your tax refund will be estimated by Tax Refund Services (TRS). The TRS refund estimate is used in determining your eligibility, however that estimate may be inaccurate.
- AutoMax will only defer up to one third (1/3) of your estimated upcoming tax refund. (For example, if TRS estimates your refund at $3,000, your maximum deferred payment would be $1,000.)
- If TRS is unable to estimate your upcoming tax refund, you will not qualify for the one-time deferment payment in March.
- Individuals with outstanding, pending, or uncleared offsets on your federal tax returns will not qualify for Tax Max. Offsets include, but are not limited to: past due child support, delinquent student loan debt, or unpaid unemployment compensation.
- If you already have specific plans or bills that need to be paid with your tax refund then this program will not work for you.
- Individuals without a recent pay stub from a current employer will not qualify for Tax Max. If you do not get a regular paycheck, or do not have a verifiable paystub, the program will not work for you.
- Be prepared to answer a few simple questions about your tax situation. If you are unsure or unable to answer questions about your income or household size, this program is not for you.
