No, you do not. 

 

Your stimulus payment will be sent to you the same way you receive your Social Security benefits – either by mail or direct deposit. The government will use the information on your Social Security form to determine how and where to deliver your money. If the IRS has your direct deposit information on file, the payment will be sent straight to that account. If not, a physical check will be delivered to your mailing address.
