Many facilities require a visitor application (often for anyone age 12+) that needs to be completed, signed, and submitted exactly as instructed. Common submission methods include email or U.S. Mail, and leaving blanks can slow down approval. Don't make the trip until you receive written or electronic confirmation. Video visitation is sometimes available and typically requires advance scheduling.
