I don't have a bank account but I do have a Green Dot Money card. Can that be used for a direct deposit? I have my work check deposited into this. Thank You, Belinda J

When you fill out your tax return, simply enter the Green Dot Bank routing number and direct deposit account number in the space provided on your tax form. Note that for direct deposit and tax refund purposes, your card is designated as a "checking" account, check that box on your tax form.  To find out what your routing and account numbers are for your card, you will go to the following link and follow the instructions on the GreenDot site:
