The bank routing number is exactly nine digits, nor more and nor less.

What routing number are you entering?

Clear the bank info and ask for a refund check.

e-File.

take the check to your bank for deposit

That will be the quickest way.

I am getting the same error. The number is correct. There has to be a better fix than to wait for a check.

I spoke with live help (person, not AI chatbot) on Tuesday Aug 29, 2023. They said that there is a known bug in the form for direct deposit that won't take a routing number. It is not user error. The form needs to be fixed by the Turbo Tax team. I was told it would be fixed by Wednesday. But, as of today, Thursday, it is still broken. You can request a check instead of direct deposit, but they say it will take an additional 7 to 10 business days to get your refund on top of what it would normally take for direct deposit.

Program updates usually come out on Thursdays at least for the Desktop program. I would try again tomorrow Friday.

I am also getting this annoying error. 9 digits!! I'm entering the same 9 digits over and over and I have also tried on a Mac and PC, same result...yes, I realize this is an insane action. I hope this gets fixed soon.
