Illinois medical marijuana card wait time

OK. Did the MCO thing on 8/31. Couple weeks to mail it I’m sure. So I’m saying they got it middle of Sept. I waited. Read this thread. Repeat. I finally couldn’t wait. I hadn’t heard nothing. I mean nada. 11/21 Called and did talk to someone from ILDPH. He informed me they “did receive my application mid Sept” but have not gotten to it. According to the equation I derived solely from this thread, I gots to be close? Right? Tom Petty was right.

One would think. Did they give you a date or just middle?
 
Wouldn't Using the words "Promulgate" and "Illinois" institute an oxymoron? Pretty Sure Illinois Government is not known for Getting our Butt in Gear, LoL

Maybe not their butts but our butts have to be on time.
This whole thing reminds me of FOID cards. Felony to possess guns without one. Law says the cards have a certain number of days to be approved. Yet the State Police has no problem not following the law and creating felons sending out renewals late.

I'm sorry officer, I know I was supposed to put that sticker on my plate yesterday but I'll get to it in 70-100 days. I'm sure you understand, this is Illinois.
I was really amazed when they made the law where we wouldn't get fined if the state didn't start sending out registration letters again. I think that was the only time they moved fast.

Did I see hear that some sept. folks have received their card? My application was submitted 9/7 and cc charged 9/10, called 11/26 and was told sec of state had to verify my address but nothing else. Still waiting and according to informed mail nothing today. Hate to get to excited because of how Illinois government works or should I say doesn't work.

You should be real soon, it probably took a bit for them to verify your address, but IllinoisSucks got his, and I think he was September 2ish

I applied online 9/6, card charged the same day. I received my card this past Tuesday 11/27. So a total of 83 days. I really think you’ll see it soon. I really hope you do.
 
Fridays workers are in much better mood....Mondays...not so much.
That’s a good idea! I’ll call this afternoon, give them a chance to get through more apps! They have gotta be to me by now, if IllinoisSucks got his, and he applied 9/6, they should be to 9/20 by now! I’m at 71 days today, so it should be today! Ha

My luck, it won’t be tho! Fingers crossed!
