How to Schedule Your First Visit at Treutlen PDC (Step-by-step)

Visiting at Treutlen PDC is a two-step process. First, you get approved as a visitor by submitting the Visitation Request Form to the facility where your loved one is housed. Then you schedule your actual visit through the Georgia Department of Corrections

Start with the Visitation Request Form. This gets you approved as a visitor, and you'll submit it to the facility where the person is incarcerated - Treutlen PDC, if that's where they're currently housed. Take your time filling it out. Names and identifying details need to match what the facility has on file exactly. Even small typos can slow things down.

Once you're approved, you'll request your actual visit time through the GDC

Build these cutoffs into your plan. Aiming for a weekend visit? Treat Wednesday afternoon as your hard deadline - submit earlier if you can. For state holidays, count back three days from the holiday date. Don't assume you'll have extra time just because the holiday falls mid-week. Get your request in before 5:00 PM or you'll miss the window.

Pay close attention to the ID section when filling out your visitation request. On the GDC form, you must be 18 years or older to select certain ID options like Driver's License or State ID. If you're scheduling for someone under 18, that age rule changes what they can select. Have the correct ID details ready before you start.

Can't find clear Treutlen-specific instructions for where to send your completed Visitation Request Form? Don't guess. Check the official GDC facility page for Treutlen PDC or call the facility directly to confirm the correct submission method. Sending it to the wrong place is an easy way to lose time.
