Getting Your Massachusetts Medical Marijuana ID Card: A Timeline Overview

Once you’ve successfully completed the application for your Massachusetts medical marijuana identification card, here’s what to expect regarding timelines and what you can do in the meantime:

  1. Temporary Card Access

  2. Permanent Card Delivery
    The official plastic card typically arrives within 2-3 weeks of finishing the application process. This timeframe allows the system to verify and process your details thoroughly.

    If you haven’t received your permanent card after three weeks, don’t worry. Simply reach out to the Program’s helpline at (833) 869-6820 for assistance and updates. They can help resolve any issues or delays.

By following these steps, you’ll ensure a smooth transition to possessing your official medical marijuana ID in Massachusetts.
