Dear Si, I have filed My mother Income tax return as legal heir with department. My return has been processed and refund order issued u/s 143(1). The refund was not credited in our joint account because she is not first name account holder. Now I proceed to arrange to send in the name of legal heir refund. I have submitted the bank detail of Legal hier in Income tax login profile and it was again fail for validation of account.
Actually Income tax department wants to transfer the refund in my mother name and we have no single account in her name and if the said to legal heir account with my mother name bank will not accept.
So kindly guid how to update Income tax profile of my mother by changing my name as Leigal heir of SMT....... and cheque of NEFT should be made in my name .

When you have filed the return as legal heir, the refund should be credited to the account mentioned by you in ITR. File complaint under 'Grievance' stating the issue, with a copy of bank account details, in which the refund should be credited.
