Oklahoma tax return - How to direct refund to bank account when not e-filing?

I have already e-filed my federal return.  On the Oklahoma return (done in desktop TurboTax Home&Business), I need to print it out and mail it in because I have to attach another state's return to it (which was not done in TurboTax).  After creating a PDF of the OK return, I see TurboTax has selected the "send my refund as a debit card" option.

 

The refund is sizable enough that I don't want a debit card, I want to fill in the option to have it direct-deposited to my bank account.  I'm not finding any way in TurboTax to edit this.  In the Forms view, it doesn't allow me to edit those fields on the return.

 

Any ideas?

Can not be  done.  Paper filing gets paper refund check. Electronic file gets electronic refund deposit.

Is this a TurboTax policy?  If I were to fill out the state's own tax form, I can request direct deposit.

You should be able to do direct deposit even though you are paper filing.

 

If you are having problems entering it within TurboTax. You can manually write the information in on the form before mailing. 

 

You could select efile to enter the details and then go back and change it to mail.

Go to Forms View and open the Oklahoma Info Worksheet.  Scroll to the bottom and you can check the box that you want direct deposit and fill out your bank name, routing number, and account number.
