Filed tax return for injured spouse and refund was to be deposited into her account. She just discovered she gave me wrong bank account number..Can she call the IRS and give the correct bank account number? I told her if the number is wrong they will mail her the check? The return was filed 4 weeks ago but I know it takes 11-12 weeks to process the check. As the return was filed joint but filed injured spouse, will the check be in joint name or her name?

I've not had an injured spouse refund, so not sure about the name. She can go to "where's my refund?" on IRS.gov to find out where the check is, yes they will mail her a check after the bank rejects, will take a couple of weeks longer for all that to happen. -
Injured spouse
You can not change direct deposit information after filing.Check will be made out to both unless you checked the box that says pay injured spouse only.Comment

Thanks so much...didn't check the box so the check will be made out to her- not joint. First 8379 that I ever filed and didn't realize that option was there.Comment
