After you file

You can change your refund method, as long as you haven't filed yet (or you e-filed but got rejected). Follow the instructions below. 

1. Open your return in TurboTax. 

2. Go to the File section in the left menu. 

3. Next to Step 2: Your refund info select Revisit. 

4. Choose your desired refund method and select Continue. 

Unfortunately, once your e-filed return has been accepted or you already mailed it, it's too late to change your refund. 

There's one exception: if you chose to apply this year's refund to next year's taxes, you can request a check refund instead.
