Before you try to set up a visit or use Minnesota DOC family services, get the person's Minnesota DOC Offender ID (OID). You'll need it for almost everything, from scheduling visits to sending money.

Don't know the OID? Minnesota DOC has an online search page where you can look it up. Save it somewhere handy once you find it. You'll need it again and again.
