Why did I get a check in the mail, for My income tax return, from CIVISTA BANK instead of direct deposit to checking account. [removed]

You received a paper check because the the financial institute you bank with rejected the direct deposit from the IRS. The account number may have been wrong or the name on the account may not have matched. When this happens the IRS sends out a paper check. You can double check the status on Where's My Refund?. https://www.irs.gov/refunds
