I would suggest emailing a copy of your state's hunter education certificate to WDFW's Hunter Education department and ask them what to do: huntered@dfw.wa.gov
I will try that although im not sure the WDWF is answering emails at this point. I have sent 2 in the last week and nary a response.

Do you have your certificate in your posession currently? Maybe try taking that to a license vendor like Fred Meyer or Big 5 and attempt to purchase your license/tags in person. No promise that will work but given our current state of affairs and the permit deadline looming its worth a shot. Hope it works out for you!
Unfortunately Im down here in Alabama. I was hoping to get in on some permits before the deadline but its not looking good.
I was considering doing the hunters education for WA state but im not even sure or how that would be recognized by WDWF before the deadline.

Gotcha, I thought you were up here but still a resident in Alabama. Hope you can work it out!

I know...i know. But i need a little help here. Im trying to apply for some permits but for the life of me i cannot add a license to my cart because it states that i dont have a hunter safety certificate (i have one, just in my state of residency). Ive tried calling and emailing WDWF but they are closed/not responding.
Any pointers fellas?
Try that?
Email: licensing@dfw.wa.gov
Be sure to provide your name and telephone number along with a description of your problem or question.

Thank you for contacting the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife.
There are three ways to add your Hunter’s Education certificate to your profile:
Send a photo copy of your certificate to licensing@dfw.wa.gov with your WILD ID or name and date of birth
Fax a photo copy of your certificate to 360-902-2466 with your WILD ID or name and date of birth
Visit any DFW dealer location with your certificate and the dealer can enter the certificate into your WILD account.
Tomorrow is the deadline...we will see

I gotta ask why from Alabama you’re wasting your money applying in Washington? You’re passing about 10 other states with mule deer and elk on the way that have much better populations and trophy potential and in many cases fractions of the cost

Just a guess, but maybe because:
Thanks. I grew up on the Peninsula and just want to combo seeing family and a hunt this fall, damn corona!
:dunno:

There's always general season if you can't meet the deadline.
This is what i will have to do as i havent heard back yet. Clue me in on general if you dont mind, is it all OTC or is there another online draw for leftovers?

No leftover draw but lots of OTC opportunities.There's always general season if you can't meet the deadline.
