Illinois Dispensary Application Opportunities

TBD

Answer

Illinois accepted cannabis dispensary license applications from December 2019 to January 1, 2020.  This licensing round resulted in a slew of litigation for the state. There is no set date for the next round of request for applications.

Why is it important?

Each state has its own time frames for accepting dispensary licensing.  Some are always receiving applications and others have specific time windows for applications. If there is a specific time window you want to make sure to prepare your application in time so you don't miss the deadline! Illinois only accepts dispensary license applications during designated time frames which are infrequent.
