How to Find Someone's Minnesota DOC Offender ID (OID) Number
Whether you're trying to call, write, visit, or send money, you'll need one key detail first: the Minnesota DOC Offender ID (OID) number.
To contact someone at MCF Shakopee, you need their Minnesota DOC Offender ID (OID). This is how the Minnesota Department of Corrections matches your calls, letters, and deposits to the right person - especially important when names are common.
Once you have the OID, save it somewhere easy to access. You'll need it repeatedly when setting up services or staying in touch with your loved one at MCF Shakopee. Having it handy saves real time and frustration.
The fastest way to find an OID is through the Minnesota DOC's
Using Oid for Money Mail
- ✓ Incarcerated person’s full name
- ✓ Minnesota DOC Offender ID (OID)
- ✓ Facility (MCF Shakopee)
If you’re sending money or trying to get communication set up, expect to enter that OID more than once. I recommend saving it in your phone notes (or writing it on a card you keep with you) so you’re not searching for it every time.
Can't find them in the online search? Double-check the spelling and try any alternate last names they may have used. Still no luck? Contact the Minnesota Department of Corrections directly for help locating the correct identifier.
