Filing a decedent return, refund due Mother's checking account is still open. Do I need to file Form 1310 for the IRS? Can I e file? Can I get direct deposit whose name?

Suggest that you read IRS Pub 559 (Survivors, Executors, and Administrators) for a lot of good information about filing the final return and estate return and other requirements - how to sign and what to attach.

https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p559.pdf

Since the return must be signed as personal representative for the deceased, it cannot be e-filed.
