Visitation
All visits at Burrus County Transitional Center must be requested through the Georgia DOC visit request form—you'll need an appointment before you can see anyone. First, get approved by completing the facility's Visitation Request Form for the location where the person is housed. The form asks for the Offender ID (GDC ID) along with your name, email, relationship, and date of birth. Once your visit is scheduled, you can manage it using the links tied to your scheduled-visit record—add visitors or cancel from there. Watch the deadlines: weekend visit requests are due by 5:00 PM on Wednesday of the same week, and state-holiday requests are due by 5:00 PM three days before the holiday. The form includes ID Type choices (Driver's License, State ID, or None), and some options require confirming you're 18+.
