How to Send Money to North Fork Corrections Facility (OK)

Inmate trust fund accounts at North Fork Corrections Facility have a maximum balance of $99,999,999.99. Most families will never come close to that cap, but it still matters: a deposit can be rejected or delayed if it would push the account over the limit. If you're sending a larger amount, check the person's current balance first so you don't waste time or fees.

North Fork uses the Oklahoma Department of Corrections (ODOC) Offender Banking system. This means the trust account is tied directly to canteen spending. Once money is available in the account, the person can use it at the facility canteen (within limits). If your goal is helping with day-to-day needs, getting funds into the trust account is the main thing to focus on.

Note: The current deposit vendor (if any), fees, processing times, accepted payment types, and canteen spending limits aren't confirmed in available sources. Verify those details with the facility or ODOC before you send money.

  1. Confirm North Fork is using ODOC Offender Banking for deposits. This is the system tied to the inmate trust account and canteen spending.
  2. Ask what payment method you can use right now. Get the exact options (for example, whether an online vendor is required, or if mailed payments are accepted) before you submit a payment.
  3. Check the person’s current trust balance. Make sure your deposit will not push the account over the $99,999,999.99 maximum balance.
  4. Save your receipt and confirm timing. Keep any confirmation number or receipt, and ask how long deposits typically take to show up in the account.
