What should be done if a person’s jail credit makes him or her immediately eligible for release onto post-release supervision?

If, at the point of revocation, a probationer already has sufficient jail credit to bring him or her within 9 months of the maximum sentence (or within 12 months of the maximum in the case of a Class B1–E felon, or within 60 months of the maximum in the case of a Class B1–E sex offender, as the case may be), then he or she is eligible for immediate release onto post-release supervision, which may be arranged through coordination with the prison system and the Post-Release Supervision and Parole Commission.
