Yes, thank you. I was seeing if anyone else experienced similar situation and what ended up being the delimma. Appreciate your response.
Just thinking out loud a bit. Is this just an ordinary everyday bank account as opposed to a brokerage account? Brokerages sometimes change up their deposit process.
Yes, everyday ordinary bank account. I toughed it out and called IRS. I was told they got more cautious on direct deposits. Even though both parties are listed on a bank account, the primary account holder has to match the primary tax filer. Must have changed policy 2 years ago when they started mailing mine.

Thanks for returning to post the cause of your situation. That may help others who have a joint account situation with direct deposit.
