Question

refund

I just efiled my son's return and then realized I put in my bank account number instead of his.  Can you advise what will happen and how I fix it?  The routing number is the same.

Thanks.

    If his return is accepted, you will not be able to change the bank account number. When the bank gets the refund, it will reject it and the IRS will issue a paper check and mail to your son at the address shown on the tax return.
