Can I Send Full Letters to an Inmate in Arizona Reception?
Good news.…
Good news. You do not have to limit yourself to postcards. Full letters and photos are accepted at all Arizona State Prison Complex facilities including during the reception phase.
Reception can feel like a communication blackout from the outside because visits and phone access are often restricted while your boyfriend is being processed and classified. But mail continues to move during that period, and a full letter is absolutely something he can receive.
This is actually one of the most important times...

If you are sent to a prison to serve out a sentence, there are no free calls. The calls are initiated by the inmate, but they must have money in their account or money on a phone plan on the outside. If you are going to speak with him more than once a week, check with our Discount Telephone Service to see if additional savings can be gotten with a new number.

The process isn't any different for folks not incarcerated. It's just that being locked up makes the simple process harder. He will need to file a petition with the court, but most likely will have to pay an attorney to make sure it's done properly. The person he is divorcing will have to be served papers and then the fun begins.

After serving my sentence am I automatically on parole?
No.…
No. Parole is an option that is determined at sentencing by the judge. If parole is available to you, you would likely get a chance to reduce your time served and not have to do the entire bid inside. Not all offenders are given parole as an option in their Judgement and Commitment order. If you don't have that option you will do 85% of your sentence and then get released. You will immediately report to the Probation Office and...

Of course they are. We have served thousands of folks who have an inmate where CityTeleCoin has the contract.
InmateAid's Discount Telephone Service is not a replacement for the phone service at the jail, we provide a number that will make the calls cheaper when you use it. We have found a number that is going to be more beneficial.
If you have received calls from your inmate already, you've seen the 318 area code on the caller ID. To get the lowest priced inmate calls, we get you a telephone number matching the rate center...
