What Happens After You Submit a Visitation Application at Mayo C.I. Annex

Once your visitation application is complete, submit it directly to Mayo C.I. Annex. The Florida Department of Corrections accepts submissions by email or U.S. Mail.

Submitting by email? Use the designated mailbox: VisitappMayoCI@fdc.myflorida.com. Double-check that address before hitting send - using the right one makes it easier to confirm your application went through.

Here's the key rule: wait for the inmate to tell you that you've been approved. Until you get that confirmation from them, don't plan a trip or show up hoping it "went through." This one step saves you from being turned away after spending time and money to get there.

The submission instructions don't give a specific processing timeline, so things can feel quiet. If you haven't heard anything, start by checking your own submission. Did your email actually send? Did your letter go out? Make sure you used an allowed method - email or U.S. Mail to the institution.

• ✓ Confirm you emailed the Mayo CI visitation application mailbox: VisitappMayoCI@fdc.myflorida.com
• ✓ If you mailed it, confirm you sent it by U.S. Mail to the institution where you’re requesting to visit
• ✓ Check your email spam/junk folder in case any reply got filtered
• ✓ Ask the inmate if they’ve been notified about your approval status yet (their notification is what you’re waiting on)

1. Don’t try to visit in person yet - Mayo C.I. Annex instructs you to wait until the inmate tells you your application is approved.
2. Re-check your submission and resend if needed - if you used email, resend to VisitappMayoCI@fdc.myflorida.com so you know it went to the right mailbox.
3. Wait for the inmate’s approval notice before making plans - their confirmation is the signal that you’re cleared to proceed.

Two things aren't spelled out in the submission instructions: how long processing takes and what happens step-by-step after approval. What you do get is the one rule that matters - don't visit until the inmate confirms you're approved. If you're unsure about anything else, verify your submission went through and wait for that confirmation before showing up.
