If i entered the the account # and routing # that h and r block used to do my taxes last year and do not match my bank account numbers , what will happen to my refund ?

H and r block had used these same numbers last 2 years to do my taxes but they do not match my bank account number , but both times i did receive my refund direct deposit with no problems

Did H&R Block use an intermediary bank last year to deduct fees out of your Federal refund?

If that account is no longer valid then  that  bank will reject the direct deposit and send it back to the IRS will send you a paper check automatically and it is sent  to the address on your tax return.

Although if you chose the option to pay your TurboTax fees out of your Federal refund, that will complicate things a bit, since the funds would go back to an intermediary bank, not the IRS, in that case.   Then that intermediary bank would be the one sending you the check.  If you chose that option, we can tell you more about that.

If you did not choose to pay any TurboTax fees out of your refund, then that won't apply to you.

Did you efile, and has your return been accepted?   If it rejects, then you can just correct the numbers.

If you are issued a check in the mail, it can take 7-14 business days for you to receive the check once it has been mailed.
