HOW TO CHANGE OR ENTER BANKING INFORMATION FOR REFUND

You cannot  change banking information while your return is in pending, nor can you change it after the return is accepted.  The IRS does not allow it.

If you have not filed your 2024 tax return -

Click on File on the left side of the online program screen.  On Step 2 if you have a federal tax refund click on Direct Deposit or if you have taxes owed click on Direct Debit.  The following screen will have your bank information which you can edit.
