How to Mail a Money Order to Someone at Alexander Correctional Institution (NC)
Mailing a money order to someone at Alexander Correctional Institution is straightforward. But a few small details—who's allowed to send, the exact name and OID, what goes in the envelope—can mean the difference between a quick deposit and a rejected one.
Here's the catch: the sender has to be on the incarcerated person's approved visitor list. This is a North Carolina Department of Adult Correction requirement for trust fund deposits. If you're not on the list, the vendor will reject the deposit - it won't post to the account. Not sure if you're approved? Get that sorted out first. Otherwise, you could waste a week or more waiting on money that never goes through.
Verify Name Oid
- ✓ Confirm the offender’s full name exactly as it appears in the system.
- ✓ Confirm the offender’s OID (offender number) and double-check every digit before you write it on the form.
Fill out the NCDAC money order deposit form completely. Use blue or black ink, and write clearly - sloppy handwriting is one of the easiest ways to trigger processing delays. Before you seal the envelope, double-check the name and OID. A simple typo or missing field can hold things up.
Note: The offender's full name and OID must match exactly. Legible blue or black ink is required. These two details prevent most rejected or delayed deposits.
