If you have not yet filed,  then you can change your bank information under the File section. However, if you have already filed or your return is in a pending state, it is too late to change it. 

You will need to wait until the return is accepted/rejected. If rejected, then you can go back into the file section and make the change. See below.

What if I entered the wrong bank account info for direct deposit?

To review previously-entered bank account info, revisit the File section in TurboTax.

If you have already e-filed or mailed in your return, you are not able to make any changes to your refund options. If your financial institution rejects the deposit, the government will mail your refund check. 
Please see the FAQ: What if I entered the wrong bank account for direct deposit? for more information.

 

If you have yet to file your taxes, you can still change your direct deposit information by following the steps in this FAQ: How do I change my transferred direct deposit information?

 Check the IRS website and update your bank information if necessary.

 

AGI is line 7 on your 2018 return and line 8B on your 2019 return.  Refund is line 21a of the 2019 tax return. and line 20a for 2018

It depends.

 

If you have not filed your return yet, you can make this change in the File section of the program.

 

Changing Direct Deposit information

Entering bank direct deposit information

 

If you have already filed your return and it has been accepted, you cannot make any changes to your return as it has already been transmitted to the IRS.  If your bank account is no longer there, the deposit will be rejected and your refund will be mailed on a paper check to the address on the tax return filed.
