Tax Year Prior to 2020: Can i recieve my tax return in my paypal account?

No. These are the options for receiving federal refund. And for state, when you get ready to file your state return, the software will let you know which tax refund options your particular state offers. Generally, the same as federal refund.

Leonard, yes you can if you have an account number and routing number associated with a CashPlus account. Please stop spreading outdated information. People, enter the routing number and acct number either associated with your card or with your PayPal account. Refund received. You're welcome.

If you have the paypal account associated with the cashplus account and have a routing and account number to enter then yes, it is treated like a bank account. You need to make sure your name is on the account though, if not, even if you put the account and routing number the funds will not be deposited and instead you will receive a paper check.

How long did it take to hit your PayPal account once the funds were sent?

Yes, as long as you can provide a routing and account number your refund can be made by direct deposit directly to your bank.

@Sherry1981 No, for direct deposit you would have to have your banks routing and account number (which could be tied to a debit card that you use from your account). You won't be able to enter a card number for the direct deposit.

Please see the TurboTax FAQ below for more information:

What are the different options for getting my federal (IRS) tax refund?
