Visitation
Wynne Unit visits are scheduled through the TDCJ Online Visitation Scheduler, which lists Regular, Contact, and Video/Tablet visit types (Video/Tablet is separate from Securus Video). Not every visit type is available for every inmate or unit, so options can vary. You must create your own scheduler account since TDCJ staff cannot do it for you. Registration requires an email, a 7-digit validation code and link sent to that email, and completion of the background questionnaire (enter your phone number as XXX XXX XXXX). To add an inmate, use their 8-digit TDCJ or SID number. Relationship requests stay under Pending Approval while unit staff verify them. If the Schedule Visit button is blank or says Call Unit, call Wynne Unit directly to schedule. The scheduler also hides dates if the inmate already has a visit that week.

Staying in touch with someone at Wynne Unit starts with phone setup. To receive inmate calls, register your telephone number online at texasprisonphone.com. Texas facilities commonly offer multiple ways to communicate: phone, video visits, electronic messaging, and inmate tablets through the agency's Inmate Technology program and third-party vendors. Exact services vary by unit, so check the Wynne Unit communication page before creating accounts. For vendor or agency scheduling tools, account setup typically involves submitting an email, confirming registration with a validation code, and using the vendor's password-reset process if needed. Before scheduling remote video visits or sending e-messages, review the vendor's scheduling, payment, and eligibility rules.

Wynne Unit's Inmate Trust Fund accepts deposits through multiple channels: money orders, ACH options, and vendor portals such as Access Corrections and JPay (check the facility's vendor list). Since September 1, 2020, you can only deposit money if you're listed on the inmate's approved visitor list or Inmate Telephone List. Do not mail cash or personal checks to the Inmate Trust Fund. They're not accepted and will be returned. Single deposits of $500 or more, plus certain company, payroll, or estate checks, are held for 14 days before the inmate can access the funds. Trust Fund staff can confirm a deposit was received, but they won't give balances or transaction details to anyone except the inmate.
