What's the easiest way to change bank account information for state withdrawal? I had to close my bank account due to fraud.

If you have not filed your taxes, you can change your direct deposit information by following the steps below:

    Go to the File tab
    Finish Step 1 Review your order
    Proceed to Step 2 Your refund/payment Info
    Verify that the box stating "I want my refund deposited into this account" is unchecked
    At the bottom of the page, click Continue
    Enter your new bank account information

If you have already filed your tax return, then you may be able to stop the direct deposit by contacting the IRS if the return has not yet been processed by the IRS system. To request this change and see if a check can be mailed to you, you may contact the IRS directly at 1-800-829-1040. Their hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

This may be a good way if you are owed something.  But, if you owe the IRS and you have set out in your e-file for them to be Abe to take the money from your account on April 18 and the account is closed, then what happens???

TO CANCEL A TAX PAYMENT YOU SCHEDULED

 

If your return was accepted, you cannot change your payment method  or payment date.  The only thing you can do is cancel the payment and then pay by a different method on your own.

 

• Call IRS e-file Payment Services 24/7 at 1-888-353-4537 to ask about or cancel your payment, but please wait 7 to 10 days after your return was accepted before calling.
• Cancellation requests must be received no later than 11:59 p.m. ET two business days prior to the scheduled payment date.
