****IF YOU HAVE ALREADY E-FILED, YOU WILL BE UNABLE TO CHANGE YOUR BANK INFORMATION. 

Please note that without the correct routing number AND account number together, your refund will not come via direct deposit. However, don't worry! You should receive notice from the IRS when they cannot complete the direct deposit and this notice will come via US Mail.  This notice will let you know that a paper check should arrive shortly. Please see the following link for more info on the IRS notice you will receive: https://www.irs.gov/individuals/understanding-your-cp53a-notice

We did not get a wrong routing number thing from IRS and I have not received any money from my taxes how can I change it.

It depends.

 

If you have not filed your return yet, you can make this change in the File section of the program.

 

Changing Direct Deposit information

Entering bank direct deposit information

 

If you have already filed your return and it has been accepted, you cannot make any changes to your return as it has already been transmitted to the IRS.  If your bank account is no longer there, the deposit will be rejected and your refund will be mailed on a paper check to the address on the tax return filed.
