welcome to wap family mimi, Great to have you with us.

To answer your Question, I believe that the only registered letter they can receive, not even sure they do this, but maybe from an attorney, but NOT from pen pals.


If i am wrong, someone will correct me.

This is another call that institution's mail room question . Offenders in TDCJ can send certified and registered mail so i would guess thy can receive them . In TDCJ they can receive registered or certified mail that is legal mail . It is probably very rare thy get registered or certified mail from any one else . Though it probably does happen . I would think that other states are similar .

I would recommend calling the mail room. I know in TX they can receive fedex and over night packages, but I have never had the question of certified mail arise.

Some institutions are very strict on how mail can arrive and for some it is regular post.

If you can provide a state, I can try my best to find the correct answer for you.

I sent registered delivery mail to my pp in Florida about 3 years ago and it got through okay.

Hi mimi I don't really know but I did send registered post to eldorado prison in kansas and I was told he did recieve it but I rang and spoke to the prison administration of my dilemma and that I had to get a letter to him urgently and they allowed it under the circumstances. You have to check with the prison if your ever unsure. I find it a pain as I live in Australia so I have to talk to them all hours of the night but its better ringing or you could risk all sorts of issues arising.
I also find it a good idea to get them to send you a prison fact sheet that says what you can send and what you cant. I'm a professional model and the prisoners love signed autographed photos of me to put on their walls but I always have to get them to check and see if their allowed and they always tell you if they can or can't.
Hope it helps,
love heaps

Default He got that letter!

I send him registered letter and he got it without problem: it was treated as an odinary mail.It took same time to get to his place (KS, EL Dorado), but cost me almost double! So I stick to the regular letters now.
