Illinois medical marijuana card wait time

[Hullj18]

They are Slower than normal …. almost kinda wonder if something else is slowing them down ?? maybe a change in the program ?? that could be a good thing ??

I wonder if they got last Thursday AND Friday off? Maybe that is slowing things down, but I agree, it seems extra slow, and I would be shocked if I don’t get approved by Friday!

Last Thursday and Friday were state holidays.

Last Thursday and Friday were state holidays.

I didn’t think Friday was? I thought just thanksgiving was.

I thought so too, but I had to call another state office and their VM said it was a state holiday.

I am sure they had a 4 day weekend , and Monday wasn't very productive / recover day/ but something seems "off" they were going along pretty fast the last of October and into the first few days of November , they were already into September apps / not counting the "more info" apps from August. is it public info on how many apps they have for current / this year/ months ??

Application was sent via Heartland CannAssist on November 1st. They processed my qualifying patient fee same day too. Wondering if anyone ever used them and how long the wait time is?

I didn't use them , but the wait seems to be a little less than 90 days . 80-90 as of right now.

I cant believe you haven't been approved already ! at least its a matter of days or hours , rather than weeks or months ! your in the final minutes !

Hope is on the way!

provisions of bill 336 : 2) Creates a “provisional registration” status allowing all patients a 90-day interim period of eligibility, while their application is being processed. This applies both to patients who could be prescribed opiates and all other qualifying patients. AND The Last one : Requires the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation and the Illinois Department of Public Health to promulgate emergency rules to implement the bill by December 1, 2018. …….. "All Other Qualifying Patients " …..I guess we will know Saturday if there is something to this ???

I have a letter coming from IDPH today in my informed delivery!! Application was received on 9-7. I called and was told I was approved on 11-16. Fingers crossed, but I looks like card delivery will be made today, 11-28. Total time from application received and card charged to card delivered is 82 days.

Update, card was delivered and is now in hand. I've got a conference for the next 3 days, of course, so I won't be able to go to the dispensary until Friday, but I have it!!!
