How do I get a travel permit?

While on supervision, the ability to travel is a privilege and reserved for individuals who are in compliance with supervision and meet the appropriate criteria. That criteria varies based on the nature of the travel and can be reviewed by your supervising Officer. All overnight travel as well as travel outside of Bucks County should be reviewed with your supervising Officer in order to determine eligibility, criteria and guidelines. You should discuss your wish to travel with your Officer in advance of your desired travel date in order to ensure that you are approved, can produce any necessary documentation and receive a travel permission form if it is required. Failure to plan ahead (for non-emergency situations) or meet the necessary expectations will result in your travel approval being denied.
