    The request for DD may not have been possible  for many reasons ...

     

     

    According to the IRS' website there are 3 reasons why you may be getting a mailed check instead of direct deposit as you requested. They are as follows:

    • We can only deposit refunds electronically into accounts in your own name, your spouse's name or in a joint account.
    • A financial institution may reject a direct deposit.

    We can’t deposit more than three electronic refunds into a single financial account.

    Hello.

     

    For the purpose of updating direct deposit information with the IRS, is it possible to e-file with Turbotax Deluxe and enter my current routing info even though I'm not receiving a refund?

     

    Thanks in advance.

    @429664 If you are not expecting a refund, the TurboTax program will not prompt you for direct deposit information. However, if your question is related to the anticipated stimulus payments, the details of those payments has not been finalized yet. The IRS asks you to check their website Coronavirus Tax Relief for updates. You can also is visit the TurboTax Corona Virus Tax Center for updates as well. Once things are finalized we will be able to provide more guidance.
