How to Become an Approved Visitor at Johnson State Prison

Before you can schedule a visit at Johnson State Prison, you need to be approved through the Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC). The process starts with the GDC Visitation Request Form. Complete it, wait for the facility to process it, and then you're ready to request visits.

Start by getting the GDC Visitation Request Form. Fill it out completely and sign it. Take your time - this form determines whether you'll be approved, so accuracy matters.

Once you've completed the form, submit it directly to Johnson State Prison. GDC requires you to send it to the facility where your loved one is housed. Confirm the facility's preferred submission method before sending - this can vary.

After you're approved, you can request a scheduled visit. GDC uses a separate scheduled visit request form for this. When you're ready to visit someone at Johnson State Prison, submit your request through that system.

How to Become an Approved Visitor at Johnson State Prison

One detail that trips people up: on the GDC visitation request form, you must be at least 18 to select ID options like "Driver's License" or "State ID." If you're 18 or older and choose one of those, bring that same government-issued ID when you check in for your visit.
