Wait for a check.   When the IRS sends your refund to a closed or wrong bank account, the bank sends the refund back to the IRS.  The IRS will issue and mail a check to the address on your tax return.  You are not allowed to change the banking information for your refund after you file your tax return.

the bank account you want to use will be supplied by you when you file your 2022 tax return.

@jesyka30r to protect against fraud, the IRS will not change banking information, so calling is a waste of time.  The only way to change it is when you file a new tax return.
