What Happens After My Connecticut MMJ Renewal Appointment?
- Log into the Connecticut portal using your existing patient credentials from your original application
- Your physician already submitted your certification directly to the state system, so you just need to complete your section with a photo ID and proof of Connecticut residence
- Good news: Connecticut does not have a state renewal fee. You already paid your doctor, so there’s no additional cost when you submit your application.
- Check your email daily for updates from the DCP because they’ll send your new digital card there first, then mail the physical card to your address
- Pro tip: The state portal works best on desktop computers during morning hours before 11 AM. If you get error messages, try logging out completely, clearing your browser cache, and logging back in. Most patients find Chrome or Firefox work better than Safari for the Connecticut portal.
