Planning an All-Day Visit at Topeka Correctional Facility: How to Book Two Time Slots
Want the longest possible in-person visit at Topeka Correctional Facility? The goal is straightforward: book both available visit slots on the same day. Here's how the two-slot system works, how to schedule it correctly, and what can trip you up.
Topeka Correctional Facility offers two visit slots per day: one in the morning, one in the afternoon. When you look at the schedule, you're choosing between those two blocks of time.
An "all-day" visit isn't a separate option you select. It just means you sign up for both time slots on the same day, so you have the morning and afternoon visits reserved back to back.
Visits are scheduled through the ICSolutions online visitation scheduler. If you can't use the online system, contact the facility's visitation clerk to schedule instead. Either way, the visit has to be booked ahead of time.
- Log in to the ICSolutions visitation scheduler - Use the online system (or contact the visitation clerk if you cannot schedule online).
- Select Topeka Correctional Facility and your date - Make sure you are looking at the day you actually plan to travel.
- Book the morning slot first - Choose the morning time slot for that same day.
- Book the afternoon slot on the same date - Go back and select the afternoon slot as well, so you hold both time blocks and create an all-day visit.
Weekend limit: You can’t sign up for multiple days on one weekend. If you want two slots, book the morning and afternoon slots on the same day.
Before you leave home, check the online scheduler for your day and slots. If it shows everything is full, don't make the trip. You won't be allowed to visit. Take your scheduled times seriously, too. Missed visits can lead to a suspension of visitation privileges, so cancel ahead of time if you know you can't make it.
- ✓ Return to the online visitation scheduler.
- ✓ Find your scheduled visit.
- ✓ Record your cancellation in the scheduler.
Keep the 72-hour rule in mind. All in-person visits must be scheduled at least 72 hours before visitation begins at the facility for that week. In practice, that means scheduling closes 72 hours before the visitation week starts, so plan accordingly.
Practical Tips
- ✓ Build your day around the exact appointment times you booked so you are not rushing between slots.
- ✓ Re-check the scheduler before you travel, especially if you booked both slots, so you know your appointments are still showing correctly.
- ✓ If something changes and you cannot go, cancel in the scheduler as soon as you know.
- ✓ Bring a valid government-issued photo ID and keep it easy to access.
- ✓ Plan transportation, parking, and childcare ahead of time so your schedule does not fall apart at check-in.
