Directly from IRS site.
The IRS will use the information on the Form SSA-1099 or Form RRB-1099 to generate your payment. You will receive your payment as a direct deposit or by mail, just as you would normally receive your benefits.

Again:
If you didn't get a refund by DD you must give them your banking info to get your payment by DD. They will not use your SS banking info.

If you didn't have to file a tax return you will have to give them your banking info to get your payment by DD.

And
Even though I get my SS by DD, the Payment Tool said it needed my banking info to get DD. So, if the above conditions aren't met, expect your payment by mail.

Guess we will see as it doesn’t say that. Family who didn’t file or enter banking information say they got their money by direct deposit. She verified that they hadn’t even checked the get my payment site. Either we get it one way or the other.
