turbo tax auto filled the routing and account numbers but got the routing number wrong, the refunds have not posted to my account, and it's 1-2 weeks since they were processed/paid. Who do I go to for correction?

If you e-filed:

Banking information for direct deposit is wrong or closed

If you entered incorrect banking information for your refund, you can change it if your return is rejected. If it is accepted, however, it is too late to change it. The bank will reject the refund and send it back to the IRS. Then the IRS will issue a paper check and mail it to the address you put on your tax return. Expect a delay of at least a couple of weeks to receive your refund.

Here is what the IRS says about entering incorrect banking information
