Search for an inmate at RRM Philadelphia and get help with contacting an inmate, visitation, and sending money.
Enter first and last name to look up an inmate at RRM Philadelphia.
To look up someone connected to RRM Philadelphia, start with the federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) inmate locator—it's the main source for people in federal custody and includes records from 1982 to the present. First Step Act sentence reviews can change calculations, so the release date shown may not be accurate. If the record says "Released" or "Not in BOP Custody" with no facility listed, that person is no longer in BOP custody. They may still be held by another agency or be on supervised release. Results can also be incomplete or out of date, so confirm the listed location before making travel or visitation plans. For the best match, search with the person's full legal name, date of birth, and any ID or booking numbers.
If you're trying to find the exact address of a halfway house (Residential Reentry Center, or RRC) connected to RRM Philadelphia, you'll hit a wall. The Bureau of Prisons doesn't release information about an inmate's RRC designation or transfer status—it's a security policy, not an oversight. Frustrating when you're trying to plan, but RRC placement details simply aren't treated like regular public facility information.
When you're checking on someone connected to RRM Philadelphia and the BOP inmate locator doesn't match what you've been told, it's frustrating. Here's how the locator actually works, why dates shift, and what to do when the status doesn't make sense.
First Step Act sentence reviews can affect how the BOP calculates a projected release date, so the locator may not match other sources. Locator data can also lag or miss transfers, so confirm details through official channels and check state or local systems if needed.
“Not in BOP Custody” (or “Released” with no facility listed) means the person is no longer in BOP custody. They may be in another agency’s custody, on supervised release, or otherwise outside BOP control—check other local, state, or federal systems for current status.
No. The BOP inmate locator’s searchable records begin in 1982. For older information, you’ll need to look to state or county archives and other historical records for that jurisdiction.
First visits are stressful — you don't know what staff will ask for or how the approval process works. Good news: once you understand how WebV registration connects to your ID at the door, you can avoid most delays.
