South Idaho Correctional Institution

Visiting at South Idaho Correctional Institution (SICI) starts with approval. Every visitor must complete a visiting application and pass a background check before seeing a resident. Submit the form to the institution where the resident is housed. Processing normally takes two to four weeks. New residents must be classified before visitors can be approved, and no visits are allowed during the reception and diagnostic process. SICI visiting rooms have strict property rules: no paper money (coins are allowed in clear plastic bags, or you can use debit or credit for vending), no outside food except listed exceptions, and no pictures of any kind. Staff may search visitors or items entering the visiting area. To confirm housing location and visiting schedules, contact visiting staff or use the resident/client search tool.
