Looks like I got in before the boom last year. I submitted my app on June 27, 2017 and got my card on August 28, 2017. I remember the first day I went in and bought legally. It was the most liberating feeling in the world.

Quick question..... I sent an email to check on my status. Today is the 3rd day since I sent it. How long did it take to get a reply? Bummer part on my application is I paid by cashiers check so I will not know when it was cashed. Application sent in on the 6th of December. Thanks to all who replies.

When I asked it took 2 days to get a confirmation that my information was received... and I actually got a reply on Saturday, so someone is putting in some OT there at least.Quick question.....

I'm 12/12 and it sounds like they might just be getting to December now. Still no activity on my check though.

I've called twice, a couple weeks apart. 2 different answers. I do know they received my app. But that's it.

Just an update... my old school check was finally processed and came out of my account last night 2/23. No other communication, so I am hoping I'm good to go and the card just shows up in the mail.

Update here:
Applied 11/28
Check cashed 2/8
No card yet
I’ve hit a bunch of holidays through my wait, but man it’s taking a long ass time.
I emailed twice after my check was cashed, but no luck.
Hopefully it’s coming soon. I’ve seen some people from around 11/20 receiving their cards.
I’ll keep you all updated.

Hi, I'm new here and I just stumbled across this forum after pondering how long the wait time would be for my card. I just recently submitted my application electronically on 2/23/18 and by reading some of the posts here, it looks like I should be waiting till around April or June.

I’m new too, and got here the same way. Mine went electronically, 2/12, and my doctor told me on 2/9 that his last couple patient applications got a card 86 days after submission. That seemed like a while, but the dates here are consistent with that, so I guess we wait until May!
I been following this site for a few weeks now and am getting close to receiving my card, applied on 12/5 .i have a question that I haven't seen here . Has anyone had to change their address? I heard that you have to send your old card,proof of residence, and check for $25 back to dph. Has anyone had to do this and how long does it take to get the updated card?
Please let me know if you get the email response we’ve all been waiting for
Ok. For everyone on this blog. I wanted to update you on my experience. I received my Medical Cannabis Registered Caregiver's Card today!!! 2/26/2018. I registered with the Healing Clinic also. (shout out to healing clinic!!) My app was submitted on 12/2/2017. Paid everything by credit card that day. I got the card in the mail today!! So with this said they are definitely working on December applications! November Applications must be done already?. So I'm thinking that the November applicant's were too happy to report that they received their cards? Just trying to be real with yall. But I wanted to inform everyone that hopefully your cards are on it's way!! Best news I have heard all day!! Any questions then get at me and I will answer them. Going to the dispensary tomm. so I will probably be busy tomorrow so get at me tonight while I'm happy receiving this news....

Hi all! Just want to provide an update. I submitted my stuff on Dec 4th, actually on the 3rd but it was a Sunday, and just got my card today. That makes it 84 days. Crazy stuff! I just let it be, my doctor told me to reach out to them in a few weeks if I still haven't seen it. But, it came! Good luck!
