​Saginaw Corrections Facility, Mi

All visits at Saginaw Corrections Facility require an appointment through the Michigan DOC Visitation Scheduling website hosted by ViaPath. Book at least 48 hours ahead, but no more than 7 days in advance. The prisoner manages their approved visitor list using the CAJ-334 Visitor List form—this can include immediate family, qualified clergy, attorneys, outreach volunteers, and up to ten other people. For non-family changes, additions or deletions take effect based on when the facility receives the form. In-person visits allow up to five visitors at a time and last no more than two hours. You can schedule up to two separate in-person visits in one day. Video visits are available to anyone approved for in-person visiting, run 20 minutes, and cost $3.20 (paid in advance).

Saginaw Corrections Facility uses GTL for phone calls from incarcerated individuals. Calls cost $0.0735 per minute (effective Oct 1, 2023), plus applicable taxes and fees.

During a call, press "6" when prompted, then create a 4-digit PIN to confirm the block. Changed your mind? Remove call blocks by contacting GTL customer service or using their web help tools. Other communication options—video visits, tablet messaging, and similar services—typically require vendor registration, approval as an authorized visitor, and may include fees and content screening.

Saginaw Corrections Facility changed its visit slot release timing—windows now start releasing at 8:00 a.m. beginning Oct. 25, 2025. Applying by mail? Send the completed visiting application to the facility with a self-addressed stamped envelope. Expect up to four weeks for processing. Attorneys using the CAJ-1069 form get processed within two business days; other professional visitors may need additional time. Plan to arrive about 30 minutes before your scheduled visit. Late arrivals may lose part of their visit time, and visits can be canceled if you're more than 60 minutes late without notifying the facility. Dress code, visit location, and video-visit eligibility vary by facility—confirm Saginaw-specific requirements before you go.
