Becoming a Patient
To become a certified medical marijuana patient in the state of Connecticut, you must do the following:
Step 1
You must have one of the approved qualifying conditions - CT Qualifying Conditions
Step 2
A patient may only register for a medical marijuana certificate if he or she is a Connecticut resident being treated for a debilitating medical condition by a Connecticut-licensed physician or advanced practice registered nurse certified with the Connecticut Medical Marijuana program.
Step 3
Once the certifying physician sends the appropriate online form to the Medical Marijuana Program office, you will receive an email within 2 days instructing you to create a DAS BIZNET Account so you can access the online registration system using the email address you provided to your physician. If you do not receive an email within 2 days, contact your physician's office to confirm your email address and confirm the application was sent. Click here to create your DAS BIZNET account.
Step 4
After creating your DAS BIZNET account, you will be requested to upload the following documents:
- Proof of Identity (see examples)
- Proof of Connecticut residency (see examples)
- Note as of 7/1/23 - the state of CT has eliminated the $100 fee
Step 5
After you have uploaded all required documents and submitted your payment, please allow the State 30 business days to process your application.
Step 6
Once your application has been approved, you will receive an email with your temporary certificate that can be used at your designated dispensary.
