FTC Oklahoma City

FTC Oklahoma City welcomes visitors, but review Bureau visiting regulations and travel advisories before you go. By entering or attempting to enter Bureau grounds, you consent to searches under Bureau policy and 28 C.F.R. Part 511. Leave electronics behind—BP‑A0224 prohibits cameras, telephones, recording equipment, pagers, and other electronic devices. The visiting area, including restrooms, may be monitored for security, and some visit types (video or phone) can be recorded. You may need to complete a visitor application (BP‑A0629) with background information; false statements carry criminal penalties under 18 U.S.C. § 1001. Call ahead to confirm your scheduled visit before making the trip.

FTC Oklahoma City uses TRULINCS for inmate electronic messaging. Messages max out at 13,000 characters (about two pages) and must be text only—no attachments. Phone calls from the facility are monitored (a notice is posted), though unmonitored calls to attorneys may be allowed in certain circumstances. Third-party or alternative telephone arrangements aren't permitted. To connect by phone or electronic message, you'll typically register with the approved vendor, select the correct facility and person, and register your phone number or messaging account. Billing usually works through collect calling, prepaid options, or direct accounts, depending on the vendor setup.

Sending mail to someone at FTC Oklahoma City? Start with the money rule: don't mail funds to the facility address. Any money for an inmate must go to the designated processing center in Des Moines, Iowa. Written correspondence falls into two categories—general mail, which may be opened and inspected, and special mail, which is opened only with the inmate present. Packages from home generally aren't allowed unless you have prior written approval; limited exceptions include release clothing and authorized medical devices. Want to send reading material? Hardcover books and newspapers are allowed only when sent directly from the publisher, a book club, or a bookstore. Federal law also restricts distributing commercially published material that is sexually explicit or includes nudity.

MoneyGram is the quickest way to send money to someone at FTC Oklahoma City. Enter the inmate's eight-digit register number immediately followed by their last name so the payment posts to the right account, and use receive code 7932. MoneyGram deposits process seven days a week—funds sent between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. EST typically post within 2–4 hours. Don't mail funds to the facility address; mailed payments must go to the centralized processing center in Des Moines, Iowa. Deposits go into the inmate's trust/commissary account for commissary purchases, phone or video calls, and applicable fees.
