How to Contact an Inmate at ASPC Tucson, Santa Rita Unit (AZ)

If you only want to accept phone calls from someone at ASPC Tucson, Santa Rita Unit, you don't need to pay the $25 visitation background check fee. That said, you'll still need to apply for phone privileges through the regular application process. Expect the same kind of approval step even if you're not planning to visit in person.

If you're applying to visit and need to pay the $25 visitation background fee, friends and family can pay through any of the three approved vendors: Keefe, JPay, or GTL. You have several options: storefront or walk-up locations, phone, mobile app, or internet. Pick whichever channel works best for you.

Steps to Follow

• ✓ If you only want to accept phone calls, apply for phone privileges through the regular application process (the $25 visitation background check fee is not required for phone-only privileges).
• ✓ If you are paying the $25 visitation background fee, use one of the approved vendors (Keefe, JPay, or GTL).
• ✓ Choose a payment channel that works for you: storefront or walk-up, phone, mobile app, or internet.
• ✓ Save your payment confirmation or receipt information for your records.

Before you spend money or wait on an approval, call the facility to confirm current requirements. A few things to ask about: whether the phone-only exception to the $25 visitation background fee still applies, which vendors are currently approved, and which payment channels they accept. You'll also want to verify where and how to submit the phone-privileges application, how long processing typically takes, and whether you need any additional documentation (like specific ID requirements).
