Of course. Are you currently not receiving any Social Security or SSI benefits yet but are you planning to apply?
Yes, that'd be the case.
Then you should tell the Social Security representative when you apply for benefits that you want to sign up for Direct Deposit.
What if I already own a bank account?
Then you should bring your checkbook or a copy of your bank statement with you.
Another point to consider about Social Security. What kind of identification do I need to display at Social Security?
We must see your driver's license or state issued no-driver card.
What happens if I do not have one of these documents or cannot get replacement within ten days?
We will ask for other documents that are current and they need to show your name, date of birth or age and preferably a recent photograph.
Do I really need to replace my child's card?
