Good evening. If you have not filed, you can change your refund method by signing in and go back into your return then, go into the File section again to choose a different method.

  • If you have not filed your return already, please follow the below steps .
  1. Sign in to your online return, if you're not already signed in.
  2. Click File in the upper right corner and proceed to the Just one more step screen.
  3. On this screen, click the first Revisit link (next to You've chosen to deduct your TurboTax fees from your federal refund).
  4. Click View Payment Options on the next screen, and then select method on the screen after that.
  5. Complete payment by entering information.
  6. Continue to the Just one more step screen to make sure the method has changed.


Please review the article below to troubleshoot getting a paper check. It could be that you have elected to use the refund processing service.

Once you have filed, you cannot change your refund method; you will ultimately get a paper check. For example, if the direct deposit information is wrong, what will happen is basically the IRS will try to deposit the refund into the account on record. Since the information is not exactly correct, the bank will reject it and send the refund back to the IRS. Once the IRS gets your refund back they will issue you a paper check and send it to the address that you put on your return. You can call the IRS directly at 800-829-1040, M - F, 7 a.m. - 7 p.m.
