Post by: BD1 on February 19, 2020, 10:46:50 AM: I have been known to forget :bash: Do it even if you didn't hunt or harvest what you have authorization for.

Last year they tried to pop me, my wife, and my daughter for $10. Gal on the phone seemed a bit annoyed at the system when I started reading off confirmation numbers.

Good call.

I for sure sent mine in last year, but got popped for $10.

It is a weird set up if you ask me :dunno:

Thank You

Customer service rep tried to help me then connected me to the licensing department. They solved the issue. Have your wildlife ID on hand and if possible be in front of the computer. Not a big deal at all...about a 5 minute phone call.
