Choose Direct Deposit for Your Tax Refund This Year

Your tax return deadline is almost here! All individual income tax returns for the 2023 year are due April 15, 2024. As you complete your taxes, we recommend opting for direct deposit as your preferred method of refund. According to the American Bankers Association (ABA), 8 out of 10 people choose this method, and for good reason! 

Why choose direct deposit for your tax refund? 

1. It’s free.
2. It eliminates any chance of your refund check getting lost, stolen or destroyed. 

3. There’s no possibility of forgetting to deposit it since your refund goes straight into your bank account. You’ll get the refund faster because it’s electronic and doesn’t have to travel through the mail.

If you choose direct deposit, you’ll need your routing number and bank account number. Southside Bank’s routing number is 111923607, but if you still need your account number, you can usually find it one of these ways:

• On a check, the routing number is the nine-digit number in the bottom left corner, while your account number is the number directly to the right of it.
• Log in to Southside Bank’s mobile app or online banking. Your account number is on your bank statement.
• Contact Southside Bank directly to request the information at 877.639.3511.

Selecting a direct deposit for your tax refund this year is a great choice. It’s a smart and efficient way to streamline the tax refund process and maximize the benefits of modern banking.
