How to Visit MCF Rush City, MN (MN)

First, get the person's Minnesota DOC Offender ID (OID). You'll need this number constantly: for contacting your loved one, scheduling visits, and making sure you're selecting the right person in the system.

You must be on the inmate's approved visitor list before you can schedule a video visit. Even after booking, confirm the facility has approved your visit before the appointment time. Otherwise, you might show up ready to connect only to find the visit can't happen.

Video visits last 30 minutes. Both you and your loved one need to join at the scheduled time, so plan to log in a few minutes early on your end.

Here's the basic flow: agree on a date and time with your loved one, then schedule the video visitation through JPay.

1. Get the OID and confirm you are approved. Have the MN DOC Offender ID (OID) and make sure you are on the approved visitor list before you try to schedule.
2. Arrange a date and time with your loved one. Scheduling starts after you and your inmate/offender have communicated about a date and time that works.
3. Schedule the visit in JPay. Select the inmate/offender, choose the date and time, then follow the prompts to finish.
4. Pay with an eligible card. To purchase a video visitation session, you need a JPay.com account and a Visa or MasterCard on file.

• ✓ Join the video visitation at the appointed time.
• ✓ Make sure your inmate/offender joins at the appointed time, too.
• ✓ Expect a 30-minute session.

Before scheduling in JPay, make sure your JPay.com account is set up and you have a Visa or MasterCard saved for payment. When picking your date and time, double-check that you've selected the correct inmate and the appointment time you both agreed on.
