You efile and request refund to savings account and entered the numbers. Then found you checked off checking account. Will you still get your refund?

Put in savings account number and routing. But somehow I checked off checking on the 1040. Will I still receive my refund?

There is no specific article that talks about this but if your routing and account number are correct, there shouldn't be a problem. I would suggest contacting your bank to make sure it would not be a problem for them to accept the incoming deposit.

This is the only article on the IRS site, that is 

How can I ensure my refund is deposited as I designate?

First, check with your financial institution to ensure they will accept a direct deposit for the type of account you are designating. Some financial institutions will accept direct deposits for some types of accounts, but not others.

Second, ensure you have the correct account and routing numbers for the account – ask your financial institution if you are unsure – and double check the accuracy of the numbers you enter on your tax return. An incorrect or transposed number could result in your financial institution rejecting the deposit, or worse, depositing your refund into someone else’s account.

Third, double check your return to ensure you have not made math or other errors that could increase or decrease the actual amount of your refund. IRS recommends electronic filing for the most error-free return.
