Update:
Called the il dept of public health. They said they're "linking my drivers license to my card" but i was approved.
Here's the issue and PLEASE lmk if you can relate: my drivers license address doesnt match my current address. I was planning on getting it updated when it expires in a month. I believe this is why they requested additional documents last week.
So Ive updated the license address on the sos website. My only worry is that they'll see the two don't match and I'll get held up again.
Has any card holder applied with a different address on their license than their current? And if so, did you have to jump through any additional hoops after sending additional documents proving the new address?

Another update:
I called them again to confirm whether or not the drivers license address needs to match the current address to be approved. And the nice lady said they don't need to be. Just expect to have to confirm with extra docs like i had to. So now that i know I'm officially approved, as soon as the license and card are "linked" they'll send for printing. Then i should expect the card in the mail. She said about 2 weeks.
I did speak with my friend who works at a dispensary and he did say the addresses should match on drivers license and card when you visit. Therefore, I'll need to update the drivers license at a facility before buying. Oh well! Small price to pay.

You need to start with a Dr. and a legit diagnosis. My regular Dr (for years) always talked about it but finally got board this December, knowing that I have been treating myself with it for years... at the beginning of December he submitted the paperwork, then I submitted mine... and we wait... it's that simple. The wait has been horrible though, so start as soon as you can.
