If you have not already filed your tax return and want to change or edit the
banking information that is shown, make sure that the box stating "I
want my refund deposited into this account" is unchecked.
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and
select Continue.
You will be taken to a new screen
titled, "Let's get your bank account info".
This will allow you to enter the new or updated
banking information that is to be used for your 2016 direct deposit.
If you have already filed, the IRS offers the following guidance:
- "If
the return hasn't already posted to our system, you can ask us to stop the
direct deposit. You may call us toll-free at 800-829-1040, M - F, 7 a.m. -
7 p.m.
- Generally,
if the financial institution recovers the funds and returns them to the
IRS, the IRS will send a paper refund check to your last known address on
file with the IRS."
