The release date listed on the Federal Bureau of Prisons website is generally accurate and reflects the inmate’s projected release date, including good time credit. For federal inmates, most serve about 85 percent of their sentence, and the date you see usually already factors that in. It may also include time expected to be spent in a halfway house or home confinement near the end of the sentence. Is it official? It is considered reliable, but it is still a projected date, not a guarantee.

Subject: Visitation

The fastest way to find out if your visitation has been approved is to ask your husband directly. Inmates typically receive notification of approved visitors before the facility updates any outside-facing system or contacts family members.
