How to locate or contact a detainee

Use the ICE Online Detainee Locator at locator.ice.gov with the person’s A-number and country of birth, or full name plus date and country of birth. Because the locator may not distinguish the Annex from Main, call (912) 496-6905 to confirm the building. Detainees cannot receive incoming calls — leave the full name, A-number, and your callback number for message relay. Case questions: Folkston.Outreach@ice.dhs.gov.

Visitation

Identical to Main’s schedule: family on Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays by classification (medium-high/high: Sat 11:15 a.m.–2:15 p.m., Sun 8–11 a.m.; low/medium-low reversed); attorneys daily 7 a.m.–3 p.m. scheduled through ERO eFile, with walk-in windows 6–7 a.m. and 3–11 p.m. as space permits. Bring government-issued photo ID.

Mail and money

Letters: detainee’s full name + A-number, return address required, all mail inspected. Money: accesscorrections.com online, or money orders mailed to GEO Folkston ICE Processing Center, 3026 Hwy 252 East, Folkston, GA 31537 — Annex deposits route through Main’s address.
