The mail is processed immediately upon purchase. We estimate that it takes 2-3 business days to reach the facility mail room. Once there, the staff opens and inspects all postage before deeming them ready for distribution to your inmate at mail call. We mail thousands and thousands of letters with very few problems. If your inmate's ID number and location are correct we are confident that they will receive it.
