My 2021 tax return was supposed to be direct deposited but the acct info was incorrect so it was returned to IRS. I assume they mailed it to the address provided but that address wasnt correct. I want to provide an updated bank account information for direct deposit, or to have my refund paper check mailed to correct address. I do not know who to speak to or understand what I can do to fix this issue and properly have my 2021 tax refund paid into my bank

Note that sending a change of address to the IRS will change your address for future correspondence, but it will not make them mail your missing refund to the new address. You have to use the lost check procedure to get your refund.
