    Hello Tijohnson26! If your bank rejected the refund due to the wrong routing number, the IRS will receive those funds back and then mail a paper check to the mailing address listed on your tax return.

    Once your return has been accepted by the IRS, the bank account information on the return can no longer be changed in our software. The IRS handles the refund from that point forward. If you'd like to follow up directly with the IRS or check on the status of your refund, you can reach them at 800-829-1040. Here is some additional information from the IRS about this situation: https://www.irs.gov/faqs/irs-procedures/refund-inquiries/refund-inquiries-18
