Changing from mailed stimulus check to direct deposit

I went through Intuit to sign up for stimulus the other day. I didnt realize my Chase account was still open. I opted for a mailed check. I would like to switch it to direct deposit to speed up the funds.  Can I do this, and if so  how?  Thank you.

If you have filed a 2019 tax return and need to change or add your direct deposit information, see this IRS website - https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/economic-impact-payments-what-you-need-to-know
The IRS does not have my direct deposit information. What can I do?
In the coming weeks, Treasury plans to develop a web-based portal for individuals to provide their banking information to the IRS online, so that individuals can receive payments immediately as opposed to checks in the mail.

I did not have 2018 or 19 taxes. I was unemployed.  What I am asking is, I did the sign up on here for the stimulus check and I chose mailed check vs direct deposit. I want to know if I can change that now and where?  I should be able to edit the info here, since I used this site to sign up in the first place.

Please follow these steps:

 

  1. https://intuit.box.com/s/c7squqe4xpaw8frtgr8d6m60idrrt1f0 shows you the steps of what happens in stimulus registration (SR)
  2. https://turbotax.intuit.com/stimulus-check/ link to stimulus registration (SR).  It is very important that you uses this link, not TTO link. Otherwise, you will not be able to E-file a zero return. It also has the calculator.

 

The IRS says it is working on developing a web-based system for people to give the government their direct-deposit information. Keep checking www.irs.gov/coronavirus for more details on this.
