How do I check whether someone is at the Seneca County Jail?
Try ICE's Online Detainee Locator before driving to Tiffin. The name search is exact, so also try the A-number with country of birth, and remember it skips under-18s and can be slow to add new detainees. Next call the jail at (419) 448-5074 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. ICE tells callers to have first, last and hyphenated names ready, plus aliases and birth details. A listing is not proof that a person is here. If the search stays empty, the Detroit Field Office of ICE is at (313) 771-6601, and it oversees all of Ohio.
What is the Sunday visiting schedule in Tiffin?
ICE's page (updated August 6, 2026; checked October 31, 2026) allows friends and family on Sundays only. Men have 8–10 a.m., 12:30–4 p.m. and 5:30–7:30 p.m. Women have 10–11 a.m. and 7:30–8:30 p.m. Arrive 45 minutes before your visit. Adults need a valid, verifiable government-issued ID, and minors must stay with an adult of 18 or older everywhere in the building. Visits are non-contact, and refusing a reasonable search means no entry. Video visits run Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, one per detainee per day, through cidnet.
How do messages and deposits work with cidnet, Pay Tel and JailATM?
This jail splits its services across three outside names. Non-confidential tablet messages go through the cidnet and Pay Tel websites, and video visits use cidnet too. Money is deposited through the JailATM website; it cannot be handed over directly. Cash arriving by mail is posted with a receipt, but ICE warns against sending it. ICE's page does not mention a commissary or explain how phone accounts are funded, so ask at (419) 448-5074. Detainees cannot receive incoming calls. An urgent message left at that number needs the full name, A-number and your callback number.
What should I confirm before mailing anything to Tiffin?
ICE's page prints no mailing address block for this jail, only the building at 3040 South State Route 100, Tiffin, OH 44883, so confirm the format at (419) 448-5074. Every letter needs the last four digits of the A-number and your name and address. Anything for travel or release needs prior ICE approval, and the page names no package contact. Lawyers can send legal mail to AttorneyVisitScheduling@senecacountyohio.gov, marked in the subject line, listing the detainee, A-number, pages and a return fax. Requests are handled on weekdays, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., outside holidays.
How do attorneys book Seneca County, and which court keeps the records?
Lawyers may visit in person daily from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Virtual visits and confidential calls need 48 hours' notice by email to the address above, for 60-minute slots between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., and the request must carry a Zoom meeting ID and password. The Cleveland ERO Office at (216) 749-9200 names the deportation officer, but only with a G-28 on file. EOIR's list, updated October 1, 2026, shows Seneca County Jail, Tiffin (CLE-CLD), on the Ohio televideo list of the Cleveland Immigration Court. Use the hearing guide for dates and the bond hearing guide for release.
