Med Card Must Match ID Law?

[Savage2x]

So, I've been a lurker on this forum for awhile and finally created my own account to see if anyone else has heard of this.

So, on my med card I have my PO box as my address.  However, this week when I went into my dispo they said in a couple weeks, all Medical Marijuana Card must match the patient's ID.  They were saying it's a new law being set in place. 

I've tried looking it up and found nothing related to what they're telling me.  Anyone else hear about this?

Even if they change the rules, it would be at renewal when the change would take place.

What do you mean by renewal? You mean when I renew my card?

So It'd still be valid for the next year before it expires?

[blackhorse]

Yes, I don't see the state re-issuing thousands of new cards just to change address.

Maybe the state is talking about this issue. It is first I have heard on this site.

Ask the manager at Dispo to clarify.

Yea I haven't heard of it either. I may start going to a different dispensary and see if they say the same thing.  It makes no sense that I would be approved of it then not be able to use it.  I've tried looking up new rules but all I see talked about is the recreational vote.  Maybe it's their own rule, not the states. Who knows.

your mmmp card and drivers license addy do not have to match.

 

its encouraged for you to use a po box in case card gets lost no one knows where you grow etc.

I'm sure the manager down at Dispo would fill in the blanks if you asked. Could be just a misunderstanding.

Just checked with LARA and the address doesn't have to match.

That's good to hear.  Guess it's just a dispensary rule.  I was about to call them myself haha.
