Direct Deposit Limits

[nathangund]

Does IRS have limits for Direct Deposit. My Acct & Routing # are correct and refund approved but IRS stating my refund will be mailed. Any reasons why they would change this to a mailed check vs direct deposit? Any chance my refund will be direct deposited even though it states my refund will be mailed?

I requested a direct deposit refund. Why are you mailing it to me as a paper check? (updated May 16, 2023)

There are several reasons:

• 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.
