If you transferred your info from your 2015 tax return,
TurboTax may prompt you to deposit your tax refund into the same account
you used last year.

the account is still incorrect. The bank will reject the refund and send
it back to the IRS. Then the IRS will issue a paper check and mail it
to the address you put on your tax return. For mailed returns, allow
5-6 weeks from the postmark date.
