RIDOC requires a photo ID to make any deposit into an inmate’s account. A driver’s license, state ID, or passport are accepted examples.
Whichever method you choose, take a moment to double-check the inmate's name and ID# before submitting. This is especially important for mail deposits, where the memo line determines which account gets credited. Save your receipt or confirmation number from Access Secure Deposits, and keep a copy of any mailed payment details. Need help or updated info? RIDOC's automated phone system can answer common questions without putting you on hold.
