In order to participate in the Medical Cannabis and Opioid Alternative Programs, you must verify that you reside in the State of Illinois.  To verify residency, please bring a current, state-issued identification card or drivers license and ONE of the items listed below (reflecting your current address/name). If your ID card does not reflect your current address/name, please bring TWO of the following items with accurate information to verify residency: 

Please note: The State of Illinois will not allow you to hold a CDL and a medical cannabis registration card. 

  • Utility Bill - Water, cellphone, telephone, electric, gas, and cable are all acceptable. Please be sure that the bill is less than 60 days old.

  • Pay Stub/Electronic Deposit Receipt - must show state income tax withholding and less than 60 days old

  • Voter Registration Card – must still be valid, with address in Illinois

  • Benefit Verification Letter – from the Social Security Administration and dated within the last year. You can get this letter by accessing your My Social Security account online at https://www.ssa.gov/myaccount/. In order to qualify for a reduced application fee, the letter must show disability benefits/income specifically. 

  • Housing Verification - Deed / title, rental agreement/lease, property tax bill, or mortgage statement

  • Bank / Credit card statement – must be less than 60 days old

  • Insurance policy – homeowner's or renter's only
