You cannot just add direct deposit information to a filed & accepted return.  The IRS would not get the banking information.  The IRS is going to give taxpayers the chance to enter their own banking information.  See the following:

 

The IRS does not have my direct deposit information. What can I do?

In the coming weeks, Treasury plans to develop a web-based portal for individuals to provide their banking information to the IRS online, so that individuals can receive payments immediately as opposed to checks in the mail.
