How to Contact an Inmate at Skyline Correctional Center, CO (CO)

Start with Skyline's facility page and follow its visiting application instructions exactly. CDOC requires applications to be submitted according to facility-specific directions, and Skyline is no exception.

Your application needs to include a copy of a valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID. Pay close attention to the address: the address on your photo ID must match the address you put on the visiting application, or your application may be denied.

For video visits, approval matters just as much as it does for in-person visits. You must be on the incarcerated person's approved visiting list to schedule through Securus. Everyone who appears on camera needs to be an approved visitor, not just the person who booked the session.

Bringing a child? The paperwork has to be handled correctly. Minors must be named on the visitor application of the legal guardian or immediate family member who will accompany them. If someone other than the parent or legal guardian is bringing the child, the parent needs to complete Form 300-01F (Authorization for Minor Child Visitation) and submit it using Skyline's facility-specific instructions.

Steps to Follow

• ✓ Find Skyline’s facility page and follow the “where/how to submit visiting applications” instructions for that location.
• ✓ Complete the CDOC visitor application the way Skyline’s instructions require.
• ✓ Include a copy of a valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID, and make sure the ID address matches the address on your application.

• ✓ Confirm you do not have any active warrants, detainers, or unresolved criminal cases (active visitors are run through a background check yearly).
• ✓ If you have not visited for a one-year period, expect to be deactivated and to have to reapply before you can visit again.

• ✓ For video visits, make sure you are already an approved visitor on the inmate’s visiting list, then schedule through Securus. Everyone who will appear on the video must be approved.
• ✓ If a minor will be involved, list the child on the legal guardian or immediate family member’s application. If someone other than the parent or legal guardian will bring the minor, submit Form 300-01F using Skyline’s facility-specific instructions.

Double-check Skyline's facility page for current application submission directions before you send anything. CDOC's process depends on facility-specific instructions. Using the wrong submission method can slow everything down.

Confirm what forms of government-issued photo ID are accepted. Ask whether Skyline allows any exceptions when the address on your ID doesn't match your application. The standard rule: addresses must match or your application may be denied.

Ask how yearly background check timing works and what can affect your approved status. Clarify how "active warrant" restrictions apply in practice: CDOC says warrants can bar in-person, non-contact, and video visits, but you may still be allowed on the phone list for calls.

Confirm the current Securus scheduling process for video visits once you're approved. If a child will be visiting, verify when Form 300-01F is required and who's allowed to accompany a minor based on Skyline's submission instructions.
