Question:

Can I change my bank account information after I filed my tax return?

Answer:

No, you cannot change your bank account information after you have filed your tax return. According to the IRS FAQ, once your tax return has been posted to the IRS system, you cannot change your bank account information. This rule applies to both regular tax returns and amended returns. If there is an issue with the bank account information provided, such as an invalid account or a closed account, the IRS will issue a refund by paper check to the most recent address on file.
