Sending Money

When it comes to sending money to a prisoner in Columbus Correctional Institution, you can do it one of three ways.

Lock Box

This service is completely free. It is the second fastest option out of the three. You can send money either using a personal check, money order, or a cashier’s check.

EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer)

Out of the three services, this is the only service that incurs a fee. However, this is the fasted way to send money. The money will be posted into the prisoners account within 72 hours after sending it. A well-known service is JPay.

Mail to Jail

This service is also free, well minus the stamp you will need to send off the money. However, out of the three services, this will be the longest waiting period. All funds coming into the jail are typically on a 30-day hold.

You must remember to write your name and address on the check or money order alongside the inmates’ name and their ID number. If you fail to write either name on the check or money order, the funds will NOT be deposited into their account.

Visitation

Visiting an inmate can be done on days from schedule. You will want to arrive at least 15 minutes early to get checked in. If you arrive later than 1pm, you will not be permitted visitation rights.

If this is your first time visiting keep in mind that you will need to fill out a visitor’s application form and have it accepted before you will be permitted visitation rights. You will need to keep in touch with the inmate as the prison itself will not give you a call when you are approved.

How Often Can I Visit?

You will be able to visit as often as you would like. If the inmate remains in good standing. If there is a lockdown, no visits will be honored.
