Before Your First Visit to Rockville Correctional Facility: Registration Checklist

Before you can schedule your first visit at Rockville Correctional Facility, you'll need to complete a two-part approval process. First, submit State Form 14387 so the facility can screen you - this includes checks on criminal history, DOC employment, and your relationship to the incarcerated person. Second, register for a ViaPath account and wait for approval there. ViaPath approval is required before you can schedule either in-person or online visits.

Before Your First Visit to Rockville Correctional Facility: Registration Checklist

Start with State Form 14387. Rockville requires new visitors to submit this form for screening before scheduling a first visit. The screening covers criminal history, DOC employment, and your relationship to the incarcerated individual. Take your time and answer each part accurately.

Note: You can only visit if you’re on the offender’s approved visitors list.

One timing rule to keep in mind: visitors can only see the same person once every 14 days. This affects how you space out visits once you're approved - especially if you're traveling or coordinating with other family members.

After the form screening, set up your ViaPath account. All visitors at Rockville must register for ViaPath and be approved before scheduling - whether for in-person or online visits. Already have a ViaPath account from another facility? You'll still need to confirm you're approved for visits at Rockville specifically.

Attorney visits: Attorney visits aren’t part of the offender’s regular visitation schedule, attorneys don’t need to be on the visitation list, and attorney visits are scheduled by the Facility Litigation Liaison.

Once you're approved, you can schedule. Rockville's visitation system runs on Eastern time, and available dates and times are tied to the facility's schedule. If you don't see openings right away, keep checking back.

Tip: If you’re booking from another time zone, convert your plans to Eastern time before you lock in the visit.

The State Form 14387 screening confirms you're eligible to visit. Rockville checks criminal history, DOC employment, and your relationship to the incarcerated person. Because this form drives the approval decision, accuracy matters - double-check your entries before submitting.

Even with the form submitted, you still need to be on the person's approved visitors list. Without that, you won't be able to move forward with a visit.
