Where can I enter direct deposit information?

Hi.  I have the desktop version of TT and just realized after I printed my NJ-1040 docs that I did not enter my bank account information so it defaulted to check.  I can't find how to update that on my NJ taxes to have a direct deposit. 
Thanks

If you have not e-filed the tax return, then click on File.  Follow the interview in the File section and you will come to the State section.  You will be shown how you selected to receive the state tax refund.  Click on Edit and then you can choose Direct Deposit.

Thank you.  I'm not sure how I missed it.

Hello:

I went through the banking information while using the software and answered all the questions. The software reconfirmed that the banking info was the same as for federal. However I do not see the routing number and account number on my NJ tax return. Is it coded in a hidden manner?

Thanks

Looking at the NJ 1040, it does not appear as though the information is included on the return itself.  You just check a box saying that this information will be transmitted along with the return.  So as long as you are able to verify that the information is correct in the federal section and the box on line 79 is checked, you should be good.
