How to Send Money to Denver Womens Corrections Facility, CO (CO)

Don't mail cash or a money order to Denver Womens Corrections Facility. Neither is accepted for inmate deposits. If you send them, the funds won't reach the person's account, and you'll be stuck dealing with delays trying to get your money back.

Timing matters, especially if you're trying to help someone place a canteen order. Funds sent before 4:00 p.m. Mountain Time are generally available to the inmate the next day. That said, the department advises allowing 2 to 3 days for processing. Plan ahead if the money is needed by a specific date.

Steps

• ✓ Do not send cash or money orders by mail for a deposit. They are not accepted.
• ✓ Use an approved, non-mail deposit method (for example, an electronic deposit option) instead of mailing funds.
• ✓ If you send money before 4:00 p.m. MT, expect it to generally be available the next day.
• ✓ Still build in a buffer. Allow 2 to 3 days for processing before you assume the funds are ready for canteen orders.

1. Confirm the approved deposit method you should use (online, phone, or another approved option). Mailed cash and mailed money orders will not be accepted.
2. Ask about cutoff times and posting so you understand how the 4:00 p.m. MT cutoff is applied and when funds usually show up.
3. Check for fees and required details before you pay (for example, what information you need to enter for the incarcerated person).
4. Find out when to follow up if the money is not available yet. Use the 2 to 3 day processing window as your baseline before reporting a missing deposit.
