First-Time Visitor Checklist for Bolduc Correctional Facility — application, ID, and scheduling
Your first visit to Bolduc Correctional Facility goes smoother when you handle the paperwork early and show up with the right ID. This checklist walks you through completing the visitor application, what happens during approval, and how to request a visit once you're cleared.
Fill out the visitor application completely. Bolduc won't process incomplete applications, and false information can get your visiting privileges denied. Before you seal the envelope, read through every section that applies to you (and any minor you want to bring). If you're unsure about a question, don't guess. Wrong or inconsistent details can derail an application.
- ✓ Your full legal name (make sure it matches your ID)
- ✓ Date of birth
- ✓ Street/road address (not a P.O. Box)
- ✓ Any previous/other legal names
- ✓ Driver’s license or state ID number and issuing state
- ✓ Your signature and date (don’t leave them blank)
Common hang-ups: Missing signatures and name/ID mismatches are easy ways to end up with an application that can’t be processed. Double-check everything, and don’t include false information - denial of visiting privileges is a possible outcome.
Mail your completed visitor application to: Bolduc Correctional Facility 516 Cushing Road Warren, ME 04864
Double-check that you're using the correct return address for Bolduc on the application. The same form may list addresses for other facilities - one quick glance can save you a delay.
After Bolduc receives your application, it won't be approved right away. The State Bureau of Identification runs a criminal records check first, and that can take several weeks. Build that wait time into your plans - especially if you're hoping to visit around a birthday, holiday, or other important date.
If you're not approved, you'll get a letter. If you are approved, the resident will let you know. Don't call the facility to check on your status - wait for the written decision or the resident's confirmation.
IDs Documents
- ✓ Government-issued photo ID for every adult visitor (for example, a driver’s license)
- ✓ Your ID must be presented at the time of each visit
Bringing a minor? Have their ID ready too. A government-issued ID or certified birth certificate may be required, so bring what you have rather than risk being turned away at check-in.
Once you're approved, you'll request your visit by phone. Call Catherine Neptin at (207) 273-5125 to schedule a visit at Bolduc Correctional Facility.
Call Monday through Thursday, between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Outside those hours? You'll need to try again on the next business day.
- ✓ 8:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. (Saturday, Sunday, and most major holidays)
- ✓ 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. (Saturday, Sunday, and most major holidays)
- ✓ 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. (Saturday, Sunday, and most major holidays)
Check for restrictions before you apply. If the resident is in custody for domestic violence, a sex offense, child abuse, or child neglect, they cannot receive visits from the victim unless the Commissioner or a designee grants a waiver. If that applies to your situation, approval isn't just about completing the form - you'll need to address the waiver requirement first.
Heads up: Some situations require a waiver, and leaving out information (or providing false information) on your application can affect whether you’re approved. Be accurate and consistent throughout the form.
