How to sign up for "direct deposit" (in anticipation of stimulus check)

CoryJames · ‎March 27, 2020

I filed my taxes yesterday, thinking it may be wise to do so with the potential of stimulus checks. I do not think the software offered me the opportunity to sign up for direct deposit, likely because I had no deposit coming. Is there a way for me to do this still? I filed after office hours late last night.

Thank you so much for any guidance on this!

If you do not have an anticipated tax return refund TurboTax will not permit the entry of direct deposit information since this information would only be for your current 2019 tax situation.

The stimulus check details are still being worked out by the government at this time. We do not have information on how or if you will be able to update/add direct deposit information with them. Once this is clarified we will be able to provide more guidance. You can also stay updated by checking back on the following links.
