Illinois medical marijuana card wait time

Ladies and gents, after 81 days my card has arrived in the mail :)
congratulations!!

and with a 12/14 application receipt date, same as my cardless self and well after cardless Tanker's?! mysterious, but i want to take it as encouraging as to their current speed, and also maybe as a sign that the arrival dates are less predictable than i'd figured.

I've heard Illinois is the worst state for waiting on your card. why does Illinois have to be such a pain in the a hole. I mean Rauner is just a pos in my mind, my mom lost her tenure because of him. Smh
I'm voting for Daniel Biss

I mailed my application on 12/13/17. I received a phone call yesterday stating they needed an additional document for address verification. I moved over the Summmer and never updated the address on my DL. Anyhow, I faxed an additional form to her this morning and then called right after. The phone wait time was maybe 5 mins....she confirmed receipt and stated she would be approving my application today. According to her, I should receive my card in the mail within 10-14 days.
 
Day 84 for me, I think... trying not to get too frustrated and downright pissed over here. Would love a solid night of sleep without the f'd up vivid dreams. Too much to ask??

hang in there soulfood, i got the same situation w a 12/14 date and am being slowly driven crazy by the out of date-order arrival times. any day now.
 
Thanks for hearing me vent a little... I know it should be any day now, but it is ridiculous.
Trying my best to hang in there!!
i know each night is hard as a ptsd guy myself...melatonin can get me to sleep but only makes the dreams worse. but hunger is the best sauce, those first nights of indica-assisted rest will be heavenly.

got my wife checking the mail right now aaand...nope. 3/7 remains my goal arrival date for one last day.

Today's update.....mail ran, no card. Today is day 90. I called and was told that I was just approved on 3/2/18 that I will be receiving my card in the mail. Sucks!!! ✌

I guess that does suck, Tanker, but depending how they count: 14 business days from 3/2 would put your latest ETA at 3/22, and 10-14 days from 3/2 would put your latest ETA at 3/16. maybe consider having one last 1-2 week fling with booze before your card gets here? probably a terrible idea, sorry.

thank you for your updates, though, id been concerned about what your unexpected delay signified and am glad that at least its ending with an approval.

Thanks for the encouragement. Yes I'm excited. Lucky for me, my son and I just got a saltwater tank set up so it occupies my time! I'll give a hard up date once my card comes in.
