Where to Look First
New York custody records are split by agency. Use the county directory for local jail records, DOCCS for state-prison records, BOP for federal custody, ICE for immigration detention, VINE for notices, and court portals or clerks for court records.
- County jail custody: use the County Directory.
- State-prison custody: use the DOCCS incarcerated lookup.
- DOCCS records requests: use DOCCS FOIL, Records Access Officer, Harriman State Campus, 1220 Washington Avenue, Albany, NY 12226-2050, fax 518-453-8474.
- Federal custody: use the BOP locator.
- Immigration detention: use ICE ODLS.
- Court records: use WebCrims, CHRS, or the court clerk.
