Illinois medical marijuana card wait time

I'm new to the group and wanted to provide my timeline. I went to MCO on May 10th. I've been patiently waiting and decided to contact IDPH by email today and received this reply:
Thank you for your email. Your patient registry identification card has been approved and sent for printing. You should receive it in approximately 10 to 14 days.


Sincerely,

Hi, so I submitted my application on May 18, it was received on the 19th I believe. Called today and no answer, would it be possible they could’ve sent it to the printers without sending me a final email? I plan to call again Monday but I’m getting really worried since someone said they’re already on May 21st now. Has anyone else experienced this??!
I never got any e-mail. Called on day 100, it was in my mailbox 2 days later.

I have the same receipt you have. I went to Dr. Footerman at his Springfield office on 06/22/18 my card was charged on 07/12/18. I believe that innovation express clinic just works faster that some of the other clinics. Consider yourself lucky.
I also used Dr. Footerman and was charged on the 12th hopefully we get our cards soon.
 
I have a piece on informed delivery, that says they don’t currently have a picture of. So I’m hoping one of the other any day gang people say they got theirs, because this suspense is killing me to get home from work.
 
So the state of IL finally cashed my check yesterday! Funny thing it’s actually nice to see the money leave my bank acccount! It’s been 75 days today since they have received my application. Final stretch! I hope some people get their cards this week. Any day gang!

06/22/18 final doctors appointment.

07/12/18 application received by the state card was charged.

08/07/2018 haven't heard anything yet.

Judging from what I have seen on this forum wait times are 90 days from when your card was charged.

Good luck everyone. Hope we will all be legally medicated soon.

I appreciate the knowledge as I am at day 60 since they received my app and I was starting to get a little worried they haven’t cashed my check yet. Either way thank you for the timeline as it is helpful. Please let us know once you receive your card. I hope everyone gets there’s soon.

Do you know when your check was cashed or card was charged by idph?
 
What does rhe envelope and card look like?
I should be getting it this week. Does the caregiver card come separate from the patients? I was hoping to have the card already. Email said 7-10 business days, the email was sent on July 28
