Can I change Direct Deposit info after IRS accepted return?
I filed my taxes and it was accepted last week but I just realized my direct deposit info is wrong. Is there anyway to update this or am I just gonna have to wait for a paper check now?

Unfortunately once your return is accepted, you cannot change your direct deposit information. The IRS will attempt to deposit to the account provided. If it fails, they'll automatically mail you a paper check to the address on your return. This usually adds 4-6 weeks to processing time.

Your bank might be able to reject it when it comes in if its the wrong account number. then theyll send a paper check
