Can a joint return be deposited into a bank account that is only in the name of one of the people filing?

My husband & I are filing jointly, but the bank account is only in my name. Can our refund be deposited into the account if his name is not on the account?
This feature is pending. Thanks for your patience.

Can a joint return be deposited into a bank account that is only in the name of one of the people filing?

Yes, they do not check for that.  As long as one person's name is on the account and you both sign the return, jointly, it will be deposited.
