Extending Application
The extension of the cannabis certificate is only applicable to MCPP patients with an active card in "Pending Extension" Status. Sixty days before expiration, the certificate's status will update to Pending Extension.
Once the patient has chosen either a one-year or two-year option while filling out the application, upon completing the selected term, they will be allowed to extend their medical cannabis card. A new health care professional (HCP) certificate will not be required for extensions as the current certificate remains valid for three years.
