Before Your First Michigan DOC Visit: The Complete Application Checklist

Si deseas que te añadan a la lista de visitas de alguien en MDOC, deberás completar el CAJ-103 (MDOC Visiting Application). MDOC acepta esa solicitud mediante el proceso electrónico aprobado por el Departamento o por correo postal de EE. UU., por lo que puedes elegir el método que mejor te convenga.

Aquí está la trampa: incluso si estás listo para solicitar, el recluso tiene que solicitarte primero. Los visitantes solo se agregan a solicitud del recluso. ¿No estás seguro de si ya estás en la lista? Ponte en contacto con el recluso y pídele que te agregue antes de invertir tiempo en la solicitud.

Documents Attach

• ✓ CAJ-1037 (LEIN Request), if your visitor type requires it
• ✓ Any documents the facility requests to verify the relationship between you and the prisoner

MDOC uses several visiting forms, and the name matters. CAJ-103 is the standard MDOC Visiting Application - the one most first-time family and friends need. CAJ-334 is the Visitor List form tied to who the prisoner wants on their list. Outreach volunteers use CAJ-356 (Outreach Volunteer Application). Attorneys, DHHS (Child Welfare) staff, and SOM employees have their own form: CAJ-1069. And if your visitor category requires it, CAJ-1037 is the LEIN Request that must accompany your visiting application.

Whether you submit online or by mail, approval isn't instant - processing can take up to 4 weeks. Applied through MiLogin? You'll get an email when it's processed. Mailed your application? The facility will send a response to the self-addressed stamped envelope you included.
