Free tool · Visiting

Get on the visiting list. Start tonight.

Most families wait weeks for the visiting form to come in the mail from their loved one, then mail it back. You don't have to wait. Fill out the official BOP form here, print it, and mail it tomorrow.

When in doubt, send the form in. Immediate family is usually approved from the presentence report, but staff tell us it goes faster with the form. If they don't need it, they'll shred it. If they do, you've saved weeks.

Everything you type stays on this device. Nothing is sent to us or saved anywhere. The printout is your only copy.

1. Your loved one

The unit goes on the envelope to the Unit Team, like "5841 Unit Team." If you don't know it yet, leave it blank and write it in by hand.

You'll get one PDF with two copies of each person's form, the two envelope addresses, and what happens next. Sign every form in ink after printing.
