below with each permit type . Apply at license agents or via the
Internet . Be sure to have your Conservation ID (CID) on hand .
A non-refundable $2 application fee is charged for each lottery
application .
Hunters or trappers will have three choices in each lottery .
If you will accept a permit only for one particular zone (and/
or period), complete only a first choice selection . There is no
obligation to select a second or third choice; these are optional .
When an applicant’s first choice cannot be filled, the computer
will check for the second choice listed . If this selection is also sold
out, the computer will check for your third choice . Each lottery
is completely random and awards only ONE permit — not three .
Your chance of winning a permit in the lottery depends on the
number of applicants and the number of permits allocated (permit
quota .)
Application via the Internet - Before you Start:
• Know your Conservation ID (CID) number or Social Security
Number and date of birth (DOB .)
• Know your desired permit zone and, if applicable, time period
or season. IMPORTANT: After a period of inactivity, the
Internet transaction will time out, requiring you to start over
from the beginning .
• Have your payment ready . Internet transactions may be paid
either by electronic check (e-check) or major credit card . For
e-check transactions, have ready your bank routing number
and your check book before you begin .
• During every transaction, there are several opportunities to
review your information for accuracy . A complete review at
each step will allow you to make corrections now, if necessary
. Once a transaction is complete there will be NO refunds
or exchanges . Applicants will have the opportunity to edit
their application at any time during the application period;
see Changing Your Lottery Application, page 14 . Applicants are
responsible to make application carefully . When the process is
complete, print the confirmation page or note the transaction
number for your records .
Application at License Agent Locations — Know Before
You Go
• Know your Conservation ID (CID) number or Social Security
Number and date of birth (DOB .) Know your desired permit
zone and, if applicable time period or season . The store proprietor
or clerk is not responsible to know the zone/area of
your hunting/trapping property . Be sure to review the map
and zone descriptions at home before you arrive at the license
agent . Not sure of your area? Study a county map, then use
a pencil or highlighter, follow the zone or area description
shown either on Fish and Wildlife’s Web site, in this hunting
Digest or in the turkey permit supplement to trace the zone
boundary .
• To speed your transaction, write down your information
(CID#, DOB, lottery type, first, second and third choices) and
hand it to the license agent .
