Inmate Money

Every state correctional institution has a Commissary that serves to provide prisoners an account for prisoner money and for buying things not provided by the Bureau of Prisons.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Family, friends, or other sources may deposit funds into these accounts by sending it by the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends are able to send inmates funds by way of postal mail and will have to send money to the following address and follow the steps given below:

The funds have to be in the form of a money order made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You are advised to use a U.S. Postal Service money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be kept for a 15-day hold period, and during this hold period the inmate will not have access to the deposit. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender money orders that do not have appropriate inmate information if the envelope has a valid return address. Cash and checks won’t be deposited to the inmate’s account so do not send any cash or checks.
