Direct Deposit

Direct Deposit your Federal income tax refund into up to three Accounts

The IRS has enhanced the direct deposit options for your Federal income tax refund, permitting you to divide your refund among up to three accounts.

Direct Deposit your Federal income tax refund into your Fidelity Account(s)

You may be able to direct deposit your IRS or state tax refund into your Fidelity
account(s). Refer to IRS or state instructions on direct deposit to determine if you can use this feature.

Tax refunds deposited into a Fidelity IRA in 2009 will be treated as 2009 tax–year contributions. The 2009 aggregate annual contribution limit for Roth and Traditional IRAs remains unchanged from the 2008 limit — $5,000 ($6,000 if you are age 50 or over as of 12/31/09). If you wish to designate the refund deposit as a 2008 tax–year contribution, please contact a Fidelity representative after the deposit has been received by Fidelity. In order to qualify as a 2008 tax–year contribution, the deposit must be received by Fidelity no later than April 15, 2009. Please note: The 2008 aggregate annual contribution limit for Roth and Traditional IRAs is $5,000 ($6,000 if you are age 50 or over as of 12/31/08).

For IRS refunds, if you are depositing your refund into only one account, you can simply fill out the two lines in the refund section of Form 1040 or Form 1040–A – one line is for the routing number and the other one for your account number (see below). If you want to deposit your refund into two or more accounts, you will need to fill out IRS Form 8888 and indicate on Form 1040 or Form 1040-A that you have attached that form. For state refunds, the refund section for state income tax return forms varies from state to state.

Direct Deposit to Your Brokerage or MySmart Cash Account

Your refund will be deposited into your core account.

If you have a brokerage account, then your depositor account number consists of the Fidelity prefix + your Fidelity Account® number.

For brokerage accounts that begin with X, Y, or Z:

Fidelity prefix	+	your account number

For example, if your brokerage account number is X23-456789, then your 17-digit depositor account number is 39900000X23456789.

In some cases, tax authorities are unable to use letters in the account number field. In order to accommodate a direct deposit in these instances, please substitute the following:

X replaced by the number 5
Y replaced by the number 6
Z replaced by the number 7

In this example, the account would be entered as 39900000523456789.

For brokerage accounts that consist of 9 digits :

Fidelity prefix	+	your 9-digit account number

For example, if your brokerage account number is 603-123456, then your 17-digit depositor account number is 39900001603123456.
