Can i add a checking account after I filed so it's in there for the stimulus payment ? I JUST opened an account but didn't have it when I filed so they sent a check?

Not if your tax return has already been accepted by the IRS. If you want to do this for an anticipated stimulus check the details are still being worked out by the government at this time. We do not have information on how or if you will be able to update/add direct deposit information with the IRS. Once things are finalized we will be able to provide more guidance. You can also stay updated by checking back on the following links.

Now, if your recently e-filed return is in pending status, wait to see if it is either accepted or rejected.

  • If rejected, open your return in TurboTax and go through the File section again to update/add your bank account before re-submitting your return with any applicable corrected information.
  • If accepted, you'll get your refund check in the mail.
