The Letter and Photo service through InmateAid is not digital. It is an actual letter printed out and send through the US Postal Service. We estimate that it takes 2-3 business days to reach the mail room. Normally the mail is immediately processed and delivered to the inmate, however there are delays that occur for various reasons that are outside of anyone's control. We have been successfully and reliably delivering hundreds of thousands of inmate letters over the many years we have served the families and friends of the incarcerated. Email us for a coupon, we will let you try the service for free the first time.
