Normally I file and my refund is direct deposited into my bank, however last year my husband and I filed jointly and my return was kept due to his past student debt. We filed an ammended return and recieved a paper check (as what normally happens with an ammended return). So my question is if I file the form 8379 with my return this year ahead of time will my refund be direct deposited?

Yes, If you file the 8379 with the return and have indicated Direct Deposit your refund will arrive as requested.
