Hello. Been watching this board for weeks now but now inching closer to the finish line.
Applied 1/19/2018
Called and received on 1/23/2018. I’m praying for the card to arrive by 4/20. Been on antidepressants going on 20 years Gad and PTSD. So ready for relief!!!

Hi, for me the “like” option just showed up as an option after I had been active for a bit. It almost seemed like it was tied in with the trophy or points they give for participation. Guessing of course... but it is now right next to reply.

Since they increased my medication it seems the simplest things at work and at home are getting harder the longer I am on all this crap. Thank you for the help

 

[Kvondi73]

Thank you for the kind words. Hopefully it comes on 420 lol

That would be pretty cool...Sonce I manage a game story its the same day as one of my favorite games God Of War. So it would be a blessing to relax with something other then the harsh medication

Hi Kvondi73, Hope you're doing ok today. You hang in there, I'm glad I found this place too, everyone is so kind <3 and I'm thankful for ALL the information. I've learned more here than anywhere. Ill be waiting buddies with you for sure We're already a couple days closer! I have never been on a forum either, how do you "like" these replies? lol

Thanks PlantLover for asking. My days off are the toughest days but my job has hoppin. I lost my Assistant Manager just last week and been working pretty much every day. Dont have time for the petty party...lol...but it does show up and my guys at work and at home help me keep it down.

Hi Kvondi73! Hope you’re doing alright over there. I called today, real nice guy answered within minutes. (217-524-4210) He said all my paperwork was received, correct, in the system and that I’m “still waiting to be processed.” One day closer!

I called very nervous when I spoke to them but he was very nice and said all my paperwork was complete it just hadn't been assigned to anyone yet. I believe I am on day 50 counting to 90 days. After I applied online a few days later they had it stated that Applications submitted prior to the 11 recommended conditions being added to the program will be rejected. I qualified for the Tarlov Cyst that are in the surgical area in my neck. Now Chronic Post Operative Pain qualifies. I just worried that they will reject me.

That might be backwards Im not sure how long its been days are blurring together. If I am stating at 90 day mark I have 50 more to go so says my keeper (my husband )

Sorry for all the post I am working pretty much everyday and didnt want to be rude by not responding.

No. It was sent on 1/19/18. So 60 days on the button.

That’s interesting. Do you know why you got your card so much earlier than everyone else seems to be? DPH says the process applications in the order they are received...

No idea other than I sent my form in late December. The doctor didn't get around to sending his form until 1/19/18 so maybe when IDPH received my form, they started the approval process? The people at our designated dispensary helped with all the paperwork to make sure everything was complete. Maybe that helped? Otherwise, just lucky I suppose.

There you go. You got in line, so to speak, back in December. Makes sense now.

I'm patiently waiting also. Have about 30 more days on the right

Congrats so they are in the Dec applications then. Does that sound accurate?

Hi all, been reading the comments here for some time.
I snailed mailed my app in 1/11/19.
Called last week, and they said they had just started on it.
Checked my banking today and my check was cashed today.

It seems to me the applications are assigned to different individuals since the wait time has varied between 60 and 110 days.
