Long time lurker, first time poster...

Innovative Express visit for application processing 2/23
Application confirmed by state 2/27
Approved not sure of date, but just got confirmation of approval after emailing today and it is on the way to the printer!

I live in Chicago so I'd expect it won't take 10-14 days for them to print and mail. I'll update when I see it come through on USPS Informed Delivery tool :)
I thought I read somewhere that they are printed in Springfield (I may be wrong)but it took 10 days to get to me and I live less than an hour away

Congrats! How did your first trip go?
It was a very good experience. The people was very helpful and got me lined out. If you have the opportunity try bruce banner #3 flower. Very very good. Also got some CBD products. Never thought but CBD helps kick nicotine. Haven't had a cigarette since Saturday.
 
just curious to know if anyone has had good results using topicals to help subside nerve pain? i have a spinal cord injury and some time the nerve pain gets pretty wicked. I'm hoping for the best! 31 days into the application process!

I’ve seen a lot of people saying they got emails when they were approved and the card was being printed. Is this something that is automatic or are ya’ll just getting replies to email you sent to the state? Just wondering....with all of these 75 day approvals I’m reading about I’m starting to get excited! (Day 60 for me now)

I sent an email to DPH about an hour ago and asked what date my app was received and got this reply a few minutes ago:

How much money do you recommend to bring for your first visit?

Well June 6th will be 60 days for you so that's probably the earliest you could receive it. July 6th will be 90 days. They seem to be speeding up and people are getting their cards around 70-75 days and if that trend keeps up you should hopefully see it sometime at the end of June.
