Title: sorry another multi season question.
Post by: D-Rock425 on May 17, 2013, 07:21:57 AM: If I buy an archery deer tag and put in for only archery special permits can I still buy my multi season tag at a later date?

I know last year there were more permits than applicants and i believe its the same this year but havent seen any numbers. So is there a first come first serve for all additional permits to meet the quota?

Post by: 92xj on May 17, 2013, 07:42:49 AM: My understanding is No, there is no left over permit sales, like there are in other states.
The only way to get a permit is to apply. Once application deadline is over, that's it.

All you have to do is take your archery deer tag Into an authorized license dealer and they will call Olympia and have your deer tag voided which will allow you to purchase the multi season tag. If you don't have it voided, the dealer will not be able to choose the multi-season tag as an option.

Not all dealers will do this though. Some will make you mail your tag back to WDFW licensing dept. and they will then issue you a new tag. At least from my experiences.
