Getting through the initial application process for an MN cannabis license was the first of several stages of getting fully licensed. You submitted “preliminary” plans and procedures and now the OCM will want quite a few more things before you can start operating. 

MN’s final cannabis regulations have been published and can be found here (still called Rule Draft). 

Next you must submit the Final Plans of Record.  This is where things get complicated, as explained above, and we are here to help. This is our specialty. We have years of experience satisfying cannabis regulatory agencies across the country. 

The OCM will allow a “cure period” on all applications in all stages, so if you need help fixing something you already submitted, please let us know, and we will help you. Please keep in mind, however, that we have no influence over your success in obtaining financing or a properly zoned facility. That’s what you should focus on while we help with the paperwork. Minnesota will have a 14-calendar-day cure period that will allow us to repair any errors in the documents we provide to you, and this is done at no charge.  We have a 100% success rate getting our documents qualified for cannabis license lotteries and standard application systems in other states.
