Update direct deposit

Other ways to complete this task

Set up an appointment

Available in most U.S. time zones Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., in English, Spanish, and other languages.

Tell the representative you want to update your direct deposit.

Call TTY +1 800-325-0778 if you're deaf or hard of hearing.

Contact your bank

You can ask your bank to send your direct deposit information to Social Security using the Automated Enrollment (ENR) process. This lets your bank send your information straight to Social Security, so you don’t have to call or go to an office.
