New Card Wait Time

[SpartanToke87]

Hello all. I'm new to the board. I've read a few of the topics but I was wondering how long it took some of you folks to receive your cards from LARA. My money order was cashed last Thursday and the bank is sending me a copy of it, but I was wondering if anyone has gotten their actual card before the 21 day wait period was over. TIA

Howdy & welcome to the board.

and by the way, technically, it's 20 business days (15 to process + 5 to notify if denied).

 

so, it's ok to say 21 days, but the reality is that once the postal carrier has serviced the patients delivery address on the 20th business day, and no certified mail containing a denial letter from LARA has been delivered and signed for by the patient, etc., etc. (read the law)

 

peace

Right. And it is from day of receipt, little green card you get as proof off receipt from certified mail, not: "How long since the check has been cashed".

[imiubu]

Right ^^

Hey guys, thanks for all the warm welcome messages and comments responding to my question. I'm happy to say I received it today and am on my way to the dispensary as we speak. It's a great day for me.

I guess if I had a 10 plus million dollar surplus I could get some chit done a little faster too.....

Thanks is there anything we can do about it ?

We would have to amend the state constitution to do anything about it. The roadmap has been there since I first brought it up in '09. Just like the patient to patient transfer amendment to the act, the roadmap was always right there for anyone paying attention. Whether we can get there from here is the real question. It would have been easier back then. The act has been wrapped in a cocoon of toilet paper since then. Edited August 5, 2014 by Restorium2

Well they did say the money has to stay and be used only for MMJ related stuff. So they started shelling it out to law enforcement to deal with MMJ related stuff. Not what we had in mind.

..stop sending them money

 

 

Thats one way to deal with it for sure........

[ozzrokk]

The idea was also not to open up and amend the law but we saw how that worked out. They opened it up and made it harder on patients under the guise of HELPING THE PATIENTS.......

I just took on a new patient, her card came in 11 days.

[Kingdiamond]
