How to Send an Inmate Money
Friends, family, or other people may deposit money to prisoner’s accounts by sending it by the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.
Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can choose to send inmates funds in the mail and have to send it to the address below and do so in accordance with the rules provided below:
The funds must be a money order that is made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You are advised to use a postal money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be kept for a 15-day hold, and during this hold period the inmate will not get the deposit. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender funds that don’t have correct inmate info but only if the envelope it was sent it has an adequate return address. Checks and cash can’t be deposited so don’t send cash or checks.
