Did you already e-file?  If you did NOT e-file you can go to the FILE section and change how you want to receive your refund.

 

Once a return has been accepted by the IRS you cannot change how you want to receive your refund.

 

If you e-filed:

Banking information for direct deposit is wrong

If you entered incorrect banking information for your refund, you can change it if your return is rejected.  If it is accepted, however, it is too late to change it.  The bank will reject the refund and send it back to the IRS.  Then the IRS will issue a paper check and mail it to the address you put on your tax return.  Expect a delay of at least a couple of weeks to receive your refund.

Here is what the IRS says about entering incorrect banking information

@stephyb I know in the turbo tax app on the main page scroll down to bottom where you can select "download/print your documents" once selected you should be able to look through what was actual sent to the IRS by turbo tax when you were finished.  Then look through pages for how you selected to receive your refund and find what you had listed for your account information

@stephyb To review previously-entered bank account info, revisit the File section in TurboTax.

 

Where do I enter my bank's routing or account numb ...
