Usually all candidates admitted to a SISSA PhD program are awarded a fellowship. The fellowship exact gross amount can change from time to time (usually it's increased) but at the end you'll get (around) 1000 euros per month. For 2009 the gross amount is 13350 euros and each month a PhD student gets 1020 euros net per month.
Apart from the fellowship SISSA awards each year a contribution towards living expenses (100 euros per month up to a maximum of 1200 euros per month) provided that you show a registered rent contract.
Your fellowship is considered by Italy a tax-free income hence your personal income in Italy is - considering only this fellowship and the other contributions from SISSA, that are not regarded as tax free in principle - so low that you (usually - but still you have to check) don't reach the income threshold required to pay taxes in Italy.
The fellowship is paid around the 25th of each month: you can choose to collect directly the money from the bank used by SISSA (Unicredit Bank at the ICTP Enrico Fermi building in Miramare) or to open a bank account (in whichever bank you prefer) and to get the fellowship paid into it.
