Inmates typically love getting mail, and sending mail is encouraged. While mail will be inspected for before delivery to an inmate, mail will only be rejected if it contains contraband or illicit material.

Sending Money

If mail is easiest for you, you can send money to an inmate’s commissary account by sending a money order. Just be aware that it will take a few days for the money to get to the inmate at the USP Marion.

If you are looking for a quicker delivery method, send money by Moneygram or Western Union.

Western Union: call 1-800-634-3422 or go to the Western Union website.

Phone calls

One of the ways an inmate can use his commissary account is by using it to place outgoing phone calls. Since an inmate at the USP Marion cannot receive incoming calls, he relies on these funds to place external calls. As long as he has money in his account, and you are on his preapproved calling list, an inmate can make out going phone calls to you.

Visitation

Arguably the most difficult part of visiting an inmate at the USP Marion will be getting pre-approved. It can be a cumbersome process. You will need to submit an application, go through a background investigation, and wait for the inmate to notify you that you have been cleared. Only then can you move forward with scheduling a visit.
