If you are referring to the account information for the stimulus check, please see the instructions in this article: Update your stimulus payment direct deposit information
If you get the message: "Our records show that the account you used to sign in was not impacted by the IRS error we're working to fix..." you can still get your second stimulus, but you'll need to file this season's tax return and claim the Recovery Rebate Credit. This credit will allow you to get any stimulus money you're still owed—you'll just get it as a credit on your tax return instead of a separate payment.
To do this in TurboTax, please follow these steps:
- Enter the information in your return.
- Click Federal Review at the top of your screen.
- On the screen, Let's make sure you got the right stimulus amount, click Continue.
- You will be asked about the amounts of first round and second round stimulus payments you received.
- TurboTax will then calculate the amount of stimulus payment remaining that you are still entitled to. This will show as a credit on line 30 of the 1040.

If you are referring to the information for direct deposit of the refund on your 2020 return, you can enter the correct bank information as you go through the File process. Once you mark direct deposit, you will be able to enter the bank information.
