Got it all worked out. Talked to wdfw and they refunded and cancelled my purchase from last night. They were able to find last years info off looking up his name. His dad had not set his profile up with his social security number on it so that's why I could not find him in the system. Its all updated now and hes been put in on all special apps.

Exactly what I was going to say.  Found this out with one of my kids a few years ago but I called first thing and it was no prob.
It's a TIKKA thing..., you may not understand.

You cannot purchase a hunting license for anyone born after 1/1/1972 who has not provided physical proof of hunter education. Going to a license dealer without proof will not work.

You must either find his WILD ID that was used to previously purchase a license (which establishes that he did in fact pass hunter education), or provide proof of hunter education completion.

It is possible that he hunted last year with a hunter education deferral.

He passed the hunters education class last year before his dad bought his license but the license dealer may have used the deferral on accident or something :dunno:.  I have a call into the department to try and figure it out, ofcourse i got the machine  :bash: hopefully they call back.

The education deferral is not the likely culprit here.
(1) He doesn't meet the age requirement

 Washington does not have a minimum age requirement.

They do have a minimum age to qualify for the one year deferral.

 :yeah:

10 years old minimum for deferral.
It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.

For a normal license you're correct. He means for a hunter education deferral, and for that the minimum age is 10.
