I filed a 2020 tax return and I get SSI benefits would the IRS send my stimulus check to the account I receive benefits on or the account I did my taxes on

I closed my account that I did my taxes on so will my stimulus check go to the account that I get my SSI benefits on

The IRS is likely to send a payment to the bank account or mailing address that was reported to the IRS on the 2020 Federal 1040 tax return.  At this time, there is no information that the IRS will be updating with the checking account information where you receive your SSI benefits.  This TurboTax Help states:

Do I need to do anything to get my stimulus check?

You don’t need to do anything to get your stimulus check. The IRS will determine eligibility based on your last tax return (either 2019 or 2020) and will likely send your payment to the bank account where your tax refund was deposited.

Can I change or update my bank information?

Right now, there is no way to change your information for your stimulus check. The payment will be based on the information from your latest tax return and will go to the bank account or address the IRS has on file for you.
