How do I fix my routing number on my filed tax form?

[1vmromero]

I noticed my routing number was incorrect on my filed tax form and I haven’t got my refund yet. How do I fix the information to get my refund

Sorry--you cannot fix it.

If you e-filed:

Banking information for direct deposit is wrong or closed

If you entered incorrect banking information for your refund, you can change it if your return is rejected.  If it is accepted, however, it is too late to change it.  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.  Expect a delay of at least a couple of weeks to receive your refund.

Here is what the IRS says about entering incorrect banking information

If your refund is sent back to the IRS—- make certain that the address you entered on your Form 1040 is correct.  And…open all mail, even if it looks like junk mail.

And....if you chose to pay your TurboTax fees from your federal refund there is another complication:

If you chose to have your fees deducted from your federal refund, but entered wrong or closed bank account information for your direct deposit, you are going to have an aggravating, frustrating situation.  Your refund will go back to the third party bank. The third party bank might issue and mail you a check, or they might send your refund back to the IRS and then you will have to wait for the IRS to mail you a check.

  If the third party bank mails the check, it will come in a plain envelope via first class mail so make sure you open all mail and do not assume anything is junk mail without opening it.  While you are waiting, make sure that the address you entered on your tax return is correct, or your problem will be even worse.

Note the first bullet under "Solution" at the IRS link in the reply from xmasbaby0 above. You can't correct the routing number, but you might be able to call the IRS and stop the direct deposit. They will then send your refund as a check in the mail.
