Wishing everyone the best for the start of this upcoming week. I know we're all checking our mailboxes (IM)patiently. But it takes a lot for us to get by day by day so I want to send you the best this week. I hope it's not so rough and that you have some good days.

What address did you use to email them? I see a few on the website but don’t know who to write to ask about my app. I know I’m getting close...I want to find out how close if possible. Day 66 for me at the moment.

I've emailed them at this address
DPH.medicalcannabis@illinois.gov
Make sure to include your date of birth and your mailing address.
I emailed them around day 45 and they weren't very helpful. But I've heard others have received very helpful responses. Maybe you'll have better luck since your app should be further along than mine.

When everyone is counting waiting time are we counting every day or business only?

Bpibb23, Dadiomac and anyone else from early March, since we are all trying to get a baseline for processing thought I would chime in:
As stated previously, application sent on Feb. 10th.
Called in Mid March with a dispensary question and was told my app wasn't recieved until March 5th. A few days later called again to make sure they had everything and if the info given was accurate. They wouldn't give me any date of receipt etc. Only told me I was in the system.
Emailed May 2nd for an update only received the automated response.
Hoping any of you around the beginning of March time frame can provide your status and whether or not you have received any updates so we can all try to extrapolate from there. Be well and thanks in advance!

Does this mean that the state officially received your complete application on March 22nd? I submitted mine on March 20th and I'm wondering if you and I are on the same timeline.
Heyheyhello, sorry missed your timeline. Very interesting you and I are in the same boat pretty much. Sorry to hear you have had the same trouble. Glad you have gotten somuch feedback though, hopefully you get your card soon. Will be looking forward to seeing that post. Be well!

Somewhere between March 7 and March 22 my application was complete even though I submitted mid/late Feb.
