If you are a returning customer, TurboTax may prompt you to deposit your tax refund into the same account you used last year, if you wish to change it please try this:
If you are entering banking information for the first time, here are instructions on how to do so before you file (cannot be changed after you have filed): https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/4083015
If you have already filed:
Once your return has been accepted (or mailed), it's too late to change your bank account for direct deposit. If the info you provided is for a closed or invalid account, the government will just mail you a refund check.
If the info you entered happens to be someone else's account, don't worry – banks won't deposit tax refunds into accounts where the names don't match up. You can contact your bank and alert them that you have made an error in the account number.
You can review the direct deposit account information you entered by looking on your printed return. This will be found on your 1040 under the Refund section (look for line 76).
Now, if your recently-filed return is in pending status, wait until it's either accepted or rejected. If rejected, simply open your return in TurboTax and go through the File section again to update your bank account before re-submitting your return (don't forget to also take care of whatever problem caused the rejection).
If accepted, you'll get your refund check in the mail.

You pay first, THEN you go through another screen, THEN you get the option to put in your bank deposit info for your refund to be direct deposited.
By the way Turbo Tax doesn't tell you WHEN you choose to pay with your refund that you will be CHARGED $35 for this privilege! Jheez! Pretty shady! I'm sure a lot of people don't notice that extra $35 fee.
I think TurboTax should tell you right on that page when you choose to pay with your refund that there will be a $35 fee!
Continue without selecting prior account, this will allow you to add your preferred account and routing numbers.
I have already filed but I haven't activated my card I got money in my Turbo account but I wanted deposit in my checking account how
If you have not yet filed, you may edit direct deposit information by doing the following:
If the program is still recognizing your bank information from last year, please reference this TurboTax FAQ for a workaround.
If you have already filed, it is too late to update your bank account information in the program. Assuming the bank rejects your refund because it is an incorrect account, the IRS will issue a check and mail it to the address shown on your tax return. Or, if the return hasn't already posted to the IRS's system, you can ask them to stop the direct deposit. You may call them toll-free at 800-829-1040, M - F, 7 a.m. - 7 p.m. For more information, please see IRS FAQ: What should I do if I entered an incorrect routing or account number?
If you've already filed and your return has been accepted (or mailed), it's too late to change your bank account for direct deposit. If you have not filed yet you can click here to find the directions to update your direct deposit.

Would like my refund in my turbo tax card from last year
If you have a prepaid debit card with a Visa or Mastercard logo, you can have your tax refund deposited to that card. However, in order to do this you will need to contact the company (ex. Netspend, Greendot...etc) and find out what the correct Routing number and account number (not your card number) are. You will enter this information into TurboTax just like you would enter the Routing number and account number of a bank account for direct deposit.
I put my account number wrong and would like to change it so I can get my tax refund
@faithgabbyhernandez
If you have already e-filed or mailed in your return, you are not able to make any changes to your direct deposit information. If your financial institution rejects the deposit, the government will mail your refund check.
Please see the FAQ: What if I entered the wrong bank account for direct deposit? for additional information.
My turbo card was hacked so cardgotshut off and waiting on federal return
If your tax return has already been accepted it is too late to change your bank information. See this Turbo Tax FAQ regarding What to do when I have different direct deposit information after I file.
The account number is wrong due to your software.
Once you have filed your tax return, you cannot change any of the direct deposit information.
If your account number is incorrect or your account has since closed, the IRS will issue you a check in the mail.
And do not fall for any scammers :

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.
