Adding direct deposit info when e-filing with Turbotax Deluxe

Hello.

 

For the purpose of submitting my current direct deposit information to the IRS, is there a way to input my bank routing info into Turbotax (cd version, not online) when e-filing even though I'm not receiving a refund?

 

Thanks in advance.

No there is not.

Thank you for the reply.

 

Is this a limitation of Turbotax Deluxe or is it due to a restriction of the IRS e-file system?

 

Thanks again.

It's the IRS e-file system.  Only information necessary for the tax return is transmitted.  For example, if you fill out Schedule A, but claim the Standard Deduction, the information on Schedule A would not be transmitted.  So too for banking information.  If the program allowed you to enter it, the data would not be transmitted.
