So if the money is sent to a different account that isn't mine the bank will reject it? because the account info is not mine.
Yeah, the bank will see that the info does not match and we will send the money back to the IRS. The IRS will then mail you a paper check.
And what if their bank accepts it, they will get my money?
They won't. This happens quite often and the bank that Turbo Tax uses is very vigilant in making sure that that doesn't happen. If you'd like, I can provide you with a number for the bank. 1-877-908-7228 It's called Santa Barbara Bank.
I just have one number that i mistakenly put on that last four numbers i wrote: 4967 when its 4467? This is my dilemma and im afraid someone that justs hsppen to hv that same sequence of numbers, will get it and i loose out? Can someone help?
If you entered a valid bank account number, not belonging to you, there's normally nothing to worry about. Many banks will not deposit tax refunds into accounts where names don't match up. For more information please see the TurboTax Help article below.
