I have a question about my amended return.

Is there any possible way to change your account number on an amended return? Also, do I have to file it through the mail or can I do it through TurboTax online?

If you are getting a refund they only mail checks, no direct deposit.  So an account number doesn't matter.  If you have a tax due you have to include a check or go to the IRS website to pay.

What exactly do you mean by "account number?"

Amended returns must be filed by mail, and take about 4 months to process.
