I need to change from direct deposit to mail after I already filed

Sorry once you file and it is Accepted then it is too late to change anything. If the bank rejects the Direct Deposit the IRS will mail you a check.

Did you file or not? Accepted is only the first step. Approved is the final step. The IRS accepts it for processing. So once Turbo Tax transmits it and the IRS accepts it then you can't change it. Or did you mail it?

If you efiled it is either Accepted or Rejected right away. If you filed it is too late to change anything unless it rejects. What does this say for the status?

And When you log into your account you should also see the status and if it was Accepted or Rejected, Started, Printed, Ready to Mail, etc. what does it say?

It says it was accepted but the irs website just says it’s received

OK, Accepted is the same as received. Accepted only means the IRS received it and verified your identity. Then they process it, then they approve it. So it's too late to change it now.
