Possible culprit PRs for this issue

• Fix: Expensify Cards incorrectly display workspace default currency instead of card currency  #65481: Altered useOnyx options for bankAccountList, possibly preventing Workflows page from receiving the live Onyx update after a bank account is added so the UI still shows “Connect bank account”.
• Update Workspaces tab URLs to just workspaces to clearly differentiate them from Account-related URLs #65018: Changed workspace route handling and redirects; this navigation refactor could stop the Workflows screen from re-rendering when returning via the back button, leaving the old “Connect bank account” state visible.

If not above, check these

• Bump react native onyx 2.0.117 #65405: Upgrading react-native-onyx (PR 65405) alters the state-management library that Workflows subscribes to, and the new version can prevent components from re-rendering after a bank account is added until the page is remounted, matching the observed stale ‘Connect bank account’ display.
