Getting Approved to Visit: Visitor Application Process for Lumberton Correctional
Before you can visit someone at Lumberton Correctional, your visitor application needs to be completed and approved. Plan ahead, send the right attachments, and you'll avoid the most common delays.
You can't show up and get on the visiting list the same day. Your application has to be approved first - always.
The process starts inside the facility. The person you want to visit needs to get the blank visitor application from Lumberton and send it to you. Once you have it, fill it out and submit it for review.

- ✓ If you’re 16 or older, attach a copy of an approved photo ID with your application.
- ✓ A driver’s license or state-issued photo ID is acceptable as long as it was issued by any state’s Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV).
- ✓ If the visitor is under 16, attach a copy of their birth certificate with the application.
Copied forms can be rejected: Photocopied applications may be disapproved. Use the original blank form that comes from the facility.
Missing info or attachments can stop approval: Incomplete applications - or those without proper documents attached - may be disapproved. Double-check every section and make sure your ID or birth certificate copy is included before submitting.
Don’t guess on details: If an application contains false information, it may be disapproved. Fill it out carefully and stick to information you can back up.
Criminal history may affect approval: A visitor’s prior criminal record may be grounds for disapproval. If you think this could apply to you, it’s worth confirming your eligibility before you wait on an application that won’t be approved.
After you submit your paperwork, the facility reviews it and decides whether to approve you. Wait for that decision before planning a trip. Incomplete applications or missing attachments can delay things - or lead to disapproval - so get it right the first time.
- Submit a complete application with the right attachments - approval can’t happen if the form is incomplete or missing documents.
- Wait for confirmation that you’ve been approved - you must be approved before any visit can occur.
- Only plan your visit after approval - scheduling and travel are safest once you know you’re cleared.
