What I do for my credit union, which is Community America, is to simple put in the full title of the credit union, including the words "Credit Union". As far as account numbers go it works just the same as a bank, 9-digit routing number, then account number...

However, I have found that the most accurate source of information would be your credit union. Just call them up, tell them you're filing taxes online this year and you just need to confirm what information to put in for direct deposit. If there is a particular way that their name needs to be stated on forms they would know better than anyone.


Hopefully this helped.
