I have already filed and received both refunds for 2019, I entered the wrong account or routing info so a check was mailed to me instead, which was fine but sense then I have moved. Can I update my direct deposit info and current address with Intuit to speed up receiving the stimulus check?

Check the IRS website and update your bank information if necessary. Be sure the "account number" is verified at the Greendot. com website; do not assume the card number is the account number. AGI is line 7 on your 2018 return and line 8B on your 2019 return. Refund is line 21a of the 2019 tax return. and line 20a for 2018

How to add direct deposit info

Use this IRS website for stimulus payment status and to update your bank account - https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/economic-impact-payments

After reading through 6 pages of the same question, Here is a new question.

Can you not change your system?

Why is it so hard to allow people who will not get a refund to put their direct deposit info.

This is poor business practice.

I just spent the last few hours of my Saturday off to fill out TurboTax forms. They want 90 dollars from me.

Now you people with the Expert tags are telling me that I cannot add my bank info after all this time spent + a requested 90 dollar price tag.

How about no.

The reason we are using TurboTax is likely because we have complicated taxes that make it next to impossible to use the "web-based portal". My situation is complicated and my taxes are complicated. The web-based portal will not ever work for me due to that. IRS will not fix that. However, what you could do is take the literal 5 minutes for your web designer to literally click a few times to allow me TO GIVE YOU MONEY.

Why would I pay for your service if you are not serving me?

Check the IRS website and update your bank information if necessary. Updating the direct deposit info has nothing to do with Turbo Tax.

AGI is line 7 on your 2018 return and line 8B on your 2019 return. Refund is line 21a of the 2019 tax return. and line 20a for 2018

Clearly you read the parts of my post that you wanted to read.

And you are wrong. Direct deposit info is absolutely collected by TurboTax. They just won't collect mine because I will not get a refund. If I could add my info to the IRS website, I would. I cannot because the IRS system will not recognize my address as it is foreign.

I cannot believe I paid 90 dollars for this service.

The likelihood of IRS actually helping is pretty low. Just as unlikely that congressmen care about an insignificant demographic. Also, a low chance that Intuit cares about it either.

Can't add what I need to add to either IRS website nor this site. That is the issue. The IRS portal will only work for some people, but cannot work for others. This is due to having a foreign address. I own a home, pay a mortgage, spend money, and study in the US, but I do not live there most of the year. It is impossible to add my info into their system because they do not catalog foreign addresses in the same way.

So, I was at least hoping I could add my banking info to TurboTax. However, TurboTax will not let me. Wasn't it the CEO of this company that said that the IRS had all of TurboTax's customers banking info so that we would not have to worry? However, only people who expect to get refunds are allowed to add their bank info on the TurboTax system. Because I do not expect refunds, I cannot enter my bank info - effectively making it impossible to get the stimulus check. I spend a great deal of my income in the US economy. I could use that stimulus check about now.

Anyway, there is no solution. At this point, it is water under the bridge.
