Turbotax never mails out income tax refunds because it never gets them. if you're having your fees, (including any advance) deducted from your refund, the refund goes to a third-party bank to split between you and Turbotax. It sends your portion to the bank account specified, if closed the refund goes back to the IRS to issue a paper check sent to the address on the return.

Here is what the IRS says about entering incorrect banking information

https://www.irs.gov/help-resources/tools-faqs/faqs-for-individuals/frequently-asked-tax-questions-answers/irs-procedures/refund-inquiries/refund-inquiries-18

If you chose to have your fees deducted from your federal refund, but entered wrong or closed bank account information for your direct deposit, you are going to have an aggravating, frustrating situation. Your refund will go back to the third party bank. The third party bank might issue and mail you a check, or they might send your refund back to the IRS and then you will have to wait for the IRS to mail you a check.

If the third party bank mails the check, it will come in a plain envelope via first class mail so make sure you open all mail and do not assume anything is junk mail without opening it. While you are waiting, make sure that the address you entered on your tax return is correct, or your problem will be even worse.

When you choose “refund processing” your refund goes FIRST from the IRS to the third party bank. Then the bank takes your fees out of your refund and sends the rest of the refund to you.
