FCI Elkton

Before visiting an inmate at FCI Elkton, you must be placed on their approved visiting list. Complete and return the visitor questionnaire and release form to the institution. If your submission is incomplete or you skip requested information, processing stops and you won't receive further consideration. The form authorizes release of criminal records information to the Warden, and BP-A0224 warns that false statements can carry federal penalties. Your details entered in the Bureau's Web Visiting System (name, date of birth, IDs, contact information) are used for background checks and determining visitor suitability. Entering Bureau grounds means consenting to searches. Monitoring may occur, and items like phones, cameras, weapons, drugs, and currency are prohibited. Once approved, you'll schedule visits and register through the facility's visitation system. Remote and kiosk options may be available, with vendor-specific rules.

FCI Elkton uses TRUFONE for inmate telephone services. A notice at each phone advises that calls are monitored. TRUFONE collects inmate calling list numbers, voice biometric verification data, and call recordings. It supports both live and remote monitoring of approved calls as a security feature. Recordings stay in the system for 180 days, then get deleted unless they must be retained for legal or administrative reasons. TRUFONE data may be shared with Department of Justice law-enforcement components (including the FBI, U.S. Marshals Service, EOUSA, Criminal Division, U.S. Parole Commission, and OIG) for investigations. Unmonitored attorney calls are permitted in certain circumstances. The facility also uses TRULINCS for text-style inmate messages and CTS to log letters and emails under the applicable records schedule.

FCI Elkton accepts MoneyGram deposits using receive code 7932. Enter the inmate account number as the inmate's eight-digit register number immediately followed by their last name (example: 12345678DOE). Have the inmate's full name and register number ready before you start so your deposit doesn't get delayed or rejected due to a formatting mistake. Deposited funds typically go into the inmate's trust (commissary) account for things like commissary purchases, phone time, hygiene items, or fees. Stick to approved deposit channels, and expect vendor convenience or processing fees for phone, online, or kiosk deposits.
