For your income tax refund you can use the below information. Use Form 8888 if you want the IRS to directly deposit your tax refund to either two or three of your accounts at a bank or other financial institution (such as a mutual fund, brokerage firm, or credit union) in the United States. If you file Form 8888, you cannot choose to get any part of your refund as a check. You cannot request a deposit of your refund to an account that is not in your name (such as your tax preparer's own account). An account can be a checking, savings, or other account such as an individual retirement arrangement (IRA), health savings account (HSA), Archer MSA, Coverdell education savings account (ESA), or TreasuryDirect® online account. Form 8888 can also be used to buy up to $5,000 in U.S. Series I Savings Bonds. Click on the below related link
