My refund was approved one week ago , but I m still waiting for my money and I think it”s because I filled out the wrong routing number ( I filled out the one for wire transfers , instead of the one for direct deposits)
Unfortunately if you entered the wrong banking information and went through and completely filed there is no way to change it but don't worry the IRS will be mailing you a paper check which may take just a little bit longer to get to you than direct deposit.

This is sad news. But I entered the correct bank account number and the routing number for direct deposits is the same for the entire state of MD. They should be able to figure this out , because is not like my account routing number is different then others from MD.
Your question states you entered the wrong routing number? If this is the case you'll be mailed a paper check if you did enter it correctly your tax refund amounts will go into the correct bank.
I filed on february 26th and it was accepted and finalized, however, I entered my closed account information. The bank said that there's was no way to even track my account info anymore but to call the IRS. Called multiple times and was never able to speak with anyone. Now it's COVID-19 therefore they're not even taking direct calls. It's now April 7th and I have yet to receive a check. Does anyone know how long it takes for them to deny the direct deposit and send out my paper check? HELP!
If the info you provided is for a closed or invalid account, the government will mail you a refund check within 8-12 weeks.
