WCI also publishes weekend and holiday video-visit schedules with multiple 50-minute sessions available. You schedule video visits through ICSolutions, and your account details must exactly match the information on your approved Wisconsin DOC visitor application. One thing to be aware of: a separate Wisconsin DOC enhanced video visitation policy states each person in DOC care may receive one free video visit per week, with additional paid 25-minute visits available for $2.50 each.
