After you file

When the IRS sends your Refund to an account you no longer have, the Bank will return the funds to the IRS.

 

The IRS will then mail you a check.

 

Here's more info from the IRS:

 

  • 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.
