q: Will Intuit/TurboTax program be updated in the next two weeks to show the IRS a direct deposit account for the purposes of economic impact payments for additional case of no amount due/owed?
background: My 2019 and 2018 returns show neither an amount due or an amount owed. Current software will therefore not show a routing number/checking number on the 1040 (shows "xxxxxxxx"). [Please don't say there is no reason to file in this case - there is.]
Basically, will you be updating the TurboxTax software/program shortly to accommodate new circumstances or relying on the Treasury's impromptu, input-your-info website, if/whenever that comes along?
Holding off filing for 2019 for a short while = why I'm asking. Thanks!
Can't answer for TurboTax but since the US Treasury is going to provide that function, I would say that TurboTax is Not going to change their software to accommodate this need.

The IRS does not have my direct deposit information. What can I do?
In the coming weeks, Treasury plans to develop a web-based portal for individuals to provide their banking information to the IRS online, so that individuals can receive payments immediately as opposed to checks in the mail.
