Southeastern Correctional Complex

Start by filling out the visitation application completely—don't leave any blanks, or your application may be denied. Submit it by email or U.S. Mail, and note that only one application is allowed per person. Wait until you're notified of approval before traveling to the facility. Anyone 12 or older must complete the visitation form, and visitors 16 or older need a valid photo ID to enter the visiting area. All visitors and belongings are subject to search; refuse, and you may be denied entry and face future visit restrictions. You can bring up to $50 in small bills ($1, $5, $10, $20) for vending purchases, one vehicle key (keyless entry devices require visual inspection), and limited baby items listed on the DC6-111B visitor sheet. Read that sheet and keep it with you on department grounds.

Southeastern Correctional Complex uses ConnectNetwork AdvancePay for phone calls. This prepaid system lets you fund a phone number so an incarcerated person can call you using that balance. Set up an account online at web.connectnetwork.com/get-started-fdc/, through the ConnectNetwork mobile app, or by calling customer service at (866) 732-9098. After registering, click the email confirmation link to activate your account. Your account name should match your government-issued ID. If your AdvancePay number gets blocked, the account holder must call (866) 732-9098 to request an unblock. For mailed payments or correspondence, send to: AdvancePay Service Dept., PO Box 911722, Denver, CO 80291-1722. Include the 10-digit telephone number as the account number—payments without it can't be posted. Fees may apply.

Sending court-ordered or restitution money for someone at Southeastern Correctional Complex? Mail it with the department's Court-Ordered deposit form to the FL Court Ordered Payment PO Box in Bradenton, Florida. Use a money order, cashier's check, or certified bank draft—there's no fee with these methods. Don't send cash, business or employer checks, or payments through online bill-pay services; those aren't accepted for court-ordered deposits. Double-check the offender's full name and DC# on every document to avoid rejection. The department isn't responsible for payments lost in transit, so consider mailing with tracking. For questions, call the department help line for court-ordered payments.

Florida's Offender Search database covers felony offenders sentenced to the Florida Department of Corrections—it won't show people in county jail or county-level custody. For those, you'll need separate local tools. Results can change quickly and may contain errors or miss final dispositions, so treat the information as a starting point rather than an official court record. Search by last and first name, then add details like date of birth or a booking number to narrow down similar names. If you spot an error or need help with records, contact the DOC Bureau of Classification and Central Records using the phone number listed by DOC.
