Refund time frame

Can I change preference to receive refund in 5 days instead of 21?

Receiving your refund in five days is not an option.   You misunderstood the "5 day early" choice.   That choice was offered meaning that  you could pay an extra fee to have your refund could come to you 1 to 5 days ahead of the issue date determined by the IRS.    It does not mean you get your refund within five days after filing your tax return.  And...if you have already e-filed, it is too late to change your choice.
