Mid-State Correctional Facility Overview
Mid-State Correctional Facility is operated by the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision. The research identifies the facility as a medium-security male state prison in Oneida County. Its official address is 9005 Old River Road, P.O. Box 216, Marcy, NY 13403-0216, and the incarcerated individual mail address is P.O. Box 2500. The main line is (315) 768-8581. The superintendent listed in the research is Thomas Delmar.
Mid-State should not be described as a county jail or a local arrest-booking facility. The Oneida County jail in Oriskany holds pretrial detainees, county-sentenced inmates, state-ready people awaiting transfer, federal reserved-bed detainees, and other local custody categories. Mid-State holds sentenced state-prison inmates under DOCCS. A person can move from a Oneida County arrest to county jail, then through court, sentencing, and later state placement. Once that transfer happens, DOCCS is the correct lookup and records system.
Mid-State Correctional Facility Capacity and Population
The official DOCCS page material captured for the research did not locate a current Mid-State population count or rated capacity. Because no official number was found, the page should not publish a guessed capacity or use older unofficial prison statistics. The most accurate sourced summary is that Mid-State is a DOCCS medium-security male facility. The Oneida County jail's population and capacity figures belong to the Sheriff's facility, not to Mid-State.
How to Look Up an Inmate at Mid-State Correctional Facility
Use the DOCCS incarcerated lookup to search for someone at Mid-State Correctional Facility. DOCCS says a last name can be used alone or together with birth year. DIN and NYSID are intended to be used alone. The facility name in the result is especially important in Oneida County because the county contains several state facilities, including Marcy, Mid-State, and Mohawk, plus secure treatment facilities that are not DOCCS prison rosters.
VINELink is available for New York custody notification and can help monitor custody changes, but it should be treated as a notification channel. For Mid-State placement, DIN, NYSID, sentence-related information, or release-supervision context, the DOCCS lookup is the official state-prison source located in the research.
- Open the DOCCS lookup page for current and certain former New York incarcerated individuals.
- Search by last name, or add birth year to narrow a common-name search.
- Use DIN or NYSID alone when an identifier is available from court, prison, or family paperwork.
- Confirm the result lists Mid-State Correctional Facility before using its visiting or mailing rules.
| Lookup Detail | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Last name | Primary public name-search field for DOCCS. |
| Birth year | Helps separate people with similar names. |
| DIN | Direct state-prison identifier, searched by itself. |
| NYSID | State identifier, also searched by itself. |
| Facility field | Confirms whether the person is at Mid-State or another DOCCS site. |
Mid-State Correctional Facility Address and Contact
Contact Mid-State directly for facility-specific questions and use DOCCS statewide resources for lookup, mail, money, and visitation policy. The facility shares the broader Marcy correctional and psychiatric campus area, but its mailing and contact details are specific. Do not send county jail mail to Mid-State, and do not use the Sheriff's jail Records & Bail line as a substitute for DOCCS facility information.

Visiting Someone at Mid-State Correctional Facility
Mid-State visitation is handled under DOCCS state-prison rules. The research states that the facility page links the statewide visitors page and that Mid-State uses the state-prison approval and schedule process. That means visitors should verify approval, identification requirements, dress rules, package restrictions, and the current schedule through DOCCS before traveling. Mid-State is not covered by Oneida County jail visitation hours, jail video visitation, or the county jail lobby.
Because the captured research did not provide a fixed Mid-State hour table, the correct presentation is to direct visitors to DOCCS and the facility page rather than inventing days or times. Confirm the incarcerated individual's current facility first; a transfer to another DOCCS prison changes the visiting destination and may change the visiting schedule.
| Item | Mid-State Detail | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Visitor rules | DOCCS statewide prison visitor process | Check approval and ID requirements |
| Schedule | Facility page and DOCCS visitors page | Confirm before traveling |
| County jail visits | Not applicable | Do not use Oriskany jail visiting rules |
| Transfer risk | State prisoners may move between facilities | Verify facility through DOCCS lookup |
Mail, Phone, and Money at Mid-State Correctional Facility
The research gives Mid-State's incarcerated individual mail address as P.O. Box 2500. DOCCS state rules, not county jail mail rules, govern how mail is addressed and processed. For deposits, DOCCS uses JPay and MoneyGram. The account-deposit research lists mail to JPay Lockbox, JPay online login, the JPay mobile app, phone deposits at 1-800-574-5729, and MoneyGram with Receive Code 1317. Visitors may also leave cash, money orders, and checks in a facility deposit lockbox, with a maximum money order or check of $999.99.

| MoneyGram | Receive Code 1317, $4 cash fee in captured table |
| Lockbox / Mail Deposit | JPay Lockbox, maximum $999.99 for check or money order |
Reception and Transfer at Mid-State Correctional Facility
Mid-State is a post-sentencing state facility, so its intake context is different from arrest booking. Local booking at the Oneida County Correctional Facility includes commitment checks, charge entry, court-date entry, and jail-management records. Mid-State receives people through DOCCS placement or transfer. If someone was recently sentenced from an Oneida County court, the county jail may show custody while the person is state-ready, but the state locator becomes the correct search channel after transfer.
This transfer boundary also affects families trying to use court information. A court case can explain the sentence or commitment, while the Sheriff can confirm local jail custody before transfer. After DOCCS receives the person, Mid-State's placement and visiting status come from the state system. A county roster disappearance after sentencing does not by itself prove release; it may simply mean the person moved into DOCCS custody.
About Mid-State Correctional Facility
The Mid-State DOCCS page lists general prison program categories and official PREA audit links. The research identifies PREA audits including Cycle 4 dated November 22, 2024, plus 2021, 2019, and 2016 reports. Those official facility documents are the best sourced condition and compliance references located for the page. The facility is physically near Central New York Psychiatric Center, but CNYPC is an Office of Mental Health secure forensic and correctional mental-health facility, not the Mid-State inmate locator.
Because the Marcy campus area contains several correctional and treatment operations, addresses should be read carefully. Mid-State's main mailing address, incarcerated individual mail route, superintendent, and phone line are specific to this DOCCS facility. Central New York Psychiatric Center and STARC-Oakview have different operators and privacy rules, even though they are nearby in Oneida County.
Note: Confirm DOCCS facility placement and current visiting instructions before traveling or sending money.
