Overview

Sending money to someone at SCI Huntingdon begins with making sure you do not mean SCI Smithfield. Both are PA DOC prisons on Pike Street in Huntingdon, one block apart at 1100 and 1120, so it is easy to aim a deposit at the wrong one. Money sent under the wrong institution or PA DOC number is the top reason it stalls. Once the person and number check out, fund their JPay account. Deposits run through JPay, the service the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections (PA DOC) uses at every one of its state prisons. See Send Money to SCI Huntingdon for each method, the deposit caps, and the money order mailing address. For a hold on the account or a deposit that did not post, SCI Huntingdon’s business office line is (814) 643-2400.

Is SCI Huntingdon the same place as SCI Smithfield for sending money?

No. These are two different PA DOC prisons that sit almost next door on Pike Street, Huntingdon at 1100 and Smithfield at 1120. Because they are so close, deposits get sent to the wrong one. Match the institution and PA DOC number in the locator first, so the money reaches the person you mean.

What happens to the balance if the person moves to another prison?

The JPay balance goes with them. PA DOC moves the account to the new institution automatically, so you keep using the same one. Check the locator for the new location before you add more money.
