Can I travel while on probation?

Each State will have their own rules and procedures so you need to check with your State or probation officer. In Florida most probation orders restrict travel to the County where the probationer resides. Therefore, if the one on probation wants to leave the County they would need permission of their probation officer. Many times a probationer may live in one County and work in another. If so, then the Court expands the normal order to allow travel between the two counties. When we have an out-of state client we attempt to arrange in advance that there can be a mail in probation or have the probation transferred to the State of residence. Under no circumstance, should you travel out of State without permission from the Court or probation officer.

No. You would have to get the probation transferred to the other state. Many states will not accept unless there is an adjudication of guilt. You must inform your probation officer of any move. Do not skate on thin ice, it will break, and you may end up in jail on a violation of probation.
