Hi and welcome to PTO...this is a wonderful site, and the people here are just great.

Yes, you do have to fill out a visitor app and get approved before you can visit. He should be able to send one to you and it takes a few weeks to get the approval back.

YES, YOU DO HAVE TO FILL OUT A VISITOR'S APPLICATION. YOUR SON CAN SEND YOU ONE. YOU HAVE TO BE APPROVED TO VISIT.

Hi, I know in California you have to fill out a form and they have to check you out and then you can visit. You need to write him and ask him to send you a form. I am sure you will hear soon from other in Michigan that will be of more help. Love Barbara

He also has to put you on his visitor's list as well as you fill out the application. It takes them a week or so to approve your application once you send it back to Deerfield. Don't sent it back to your son! Send it addressed to Deerfield (not your son) and put VISITOR APPLICATION ENCLOSED on the envelope....

Yes, each of them need to have a separate visitor's application filled out by you. You can also pick these applications up at any prison near you at the desk where visitors register at...
