Get Your Refund Faster This Tax Season | Wescom Credit Union

Wescom members may be getting their federal tax refunds faster than ever this year. If you have direct deposit account details added to your IRS tax form, you may get access to your funds up to two days sooner than before.* As soon as the refund posts to your account, you’ll be able to use it to withdraw cash, pay bills, transfer funds, and more. Here’s how we do it:

  1. Your refund is processed through the Federal Reserve with information that includes dollar amount and “settlement date” (when funds should post to your Wescom account).
  2. The Federal Reserve sends files to Wescom to let us know that the payment is coming.
  3. Wescom immediately deposits the funds into your account once we’re notified, making the funds available to you right away.

To add direct deposit account details to the refund section of your IRS tax form, first locate the Wescom Routing Number and your account number in eBranch or mobile. In eBranch, click the blue “Routing & Account #” bar at the upper-right corner on the Balances panel. In mobile, select Routing & Account Number from the menu.

*Early access to your direct deposit of funds is not guaranteed and is dependent on the timing of notification by the payer. Wescom will post your direct deposit when notification is received, regardless of the settlement date. Wescom does not control when the notification is received.
