Patti ~ Have you already filled out your application? If so have you already had your interview with the social security office? I'm sorry that I don't remember where you are in this process.
I believe that when I filled out my application that there was a place on the application where you could check if you wanted to use direct deposit. I had to give them all of my bank accounts information. Such as if I wanted my check to be deposited in my checking account or my savings account. As well as the bank account numbers for whatever account I was putting my check into.
Also when I had my interview the guy at the social security office told me that they preferred direct deposit because it is safer and quicker for you to receive your checks once you are approved.
You could also go onto their website and see if they have any information there as to how you can have direct deposit. Or you could also call the social security office and ask them. If you have already applied perhaps when you call them they could have you sign up for direct deposit right then as you are talking to them.
Hope this helps.
Take Care,
Chris
