You’ll hear why the shift is happening—reduced fraud and loss, faster refunds via direct deposit, and lower processing costs—and how a recent executive order accelerates the government-wide move to electronic payments.

I cover practical next steps so you don’t miss a refund or deadline: add accurate banking info to your return, set up EFT/Direct Pay, and confirm routing and account numbers.

If you’re unbanked or helping seniors, I walk through Treasury-approved options like prepaid cards and digital wallets, plus key scam warnings during the transition. I also share how tax pros and advocacy groups are responding, and what guidance to expect before the 2026 filing season.
