Interstate compact for the supervision of parolees and probatiners is an agreement signed by all 50 states that allows for the supervision of parolees and probationers in a state other than the state of conviction.

Sending State: Under the interstate compact, the state of conviction.

Receiving State: Under the interstate compact, the state that undertakes the supervision.

The receiving state informs the sending state on a quarterly basis of the progress but the sending state retains ultimate authority. The offender must meet certain residence requirements of the receiving state. Ordinarily, the probationer or parolee must be a resident of the receiving state, have relatives there, or have employment there. The receiving state agrees to accept the offender and to provide the same supervision it accords other probationers and parolees in the state. The offender who obtains the benefits of out-of-state supervision waives extradition.

Under the interstate compacts, states agree to provide "courtesy supervision" of probationers and parolees from other states. Some requests are problematic and therefore are not approved. Supervision styles vary from state to state. When it appears that a case will not unreasonably burden the receiving department, the state usually complies.

Some state do not except transfers from out os state because they feel other states are dumping parolees or probationers on them all the time and therefore may deny a transfer.

Good luck!

Hi There,

I can give you a little heads up on this. My husband is doing it right now. But ours is an out of county request. The agency where he was at before , or the agency where he last resided will get his 611 packet, they will assign him an agent and they will do all the paperwork, once they are done they will send a TIR (transfer investigation report) to the office that is closest to where you guys will be living. THat office then has 10 days to investigate it, meaning they will come out and check the house out, see if he has any employment plans, etc. My husband listed like 3 potential jobs on his 611 which helped him with his out of county transfer, so tell your man to list some if he wants to better his chances. Also, his 611 packet cannot leave the prison any sooner then 150 days prior to his release date, or it will be sent back. Any other questions, please post and I will do my best to assist you.
