How to Schedule Your Visit Using GTL VisitMe (for visitors to North Central)
Once you're approved to visit at North Central, you'll use GTL VisitMe to reserve your time slot. The process is simple, but a few details can trip people up—ID paperwork, local schedule limits, and keeping your account active.
Before you can schedule anything, your visitor application has to clear first. The facility verifies your application and either approves or denies it - the person you're visiting gets notified of the decision and any follow-up needed. Once approved, register on the GTL VisitMe website to start booking visits at North Central.
- ✓ Provide a legible copy of your photo ID with your visitor application.
Book through VisitMe and your visit is confirmed instantly. You'll pick from the available dates, times, and location options shown in the system.
If you use AdvancePay (ConnectNetwork) for related services, watch your account activity. Accounts become inactive after 180 consecutive days without use and may be forfeited. Check your status before traveling or trying to use it again.
Privacy tip: Visit scheduling and other services can involve third-party vendor accounts. Use a strong, unique password and keep your login details private - especially if you share devices or email access with others.
Seeing open slots online doesn't mean you're all set. The institution's managing officer controls visiting hours, visitor limits, visit frequency, duration, and priority. Confirm North Central's current schedule and any local restrictions before making travel plans.
On visit day, expect check-in steps beyond your online reservation. You'll register each time you visit and present a government-issued photo ID.
