Who Can Send Funds for an Inmate? 

Only approved (or tentatively approved) visitors may send funds to an incarcerated person in the ODRC.

This covers all methods of depositing money including money orders, internet, and telephone.

Approved (or tentatively approved) visitors must comply with security verification procedures to ensure that they are on the visiting list.

To get approved, you can download and fill out an application to become an approved visitor on our Visitation Page.

Please note that adding a visitor requires the incarcerated persons approval and must be compliant with ODRC Incarcerated Persons Visitation policy. This process can take 30-60 days.
