Applications for cannabis business licenses are not yet available.


The Social Equity Council must first issue its final approval on what will be required for evaluation before the Department of Consumer Protection can publish any application. 


The Department of Consumer Protection will begin to make applications available 30 days after the Social Equity Council issues its final approval of income and residency documentation and subsequently posts the criteria on its website. 

At its recent meeting, the Council conditionally approved income and residency documentation requirements for social equity applicants, contingent on two actions:

  1. The Department’s commitment to a 90-day application period, which the Department has formally approved
  2. The Council’s approval of accelerator and technical assistance programs for social equity applicants, which will occur at an upcoming meeting.

Please check back regularly for updated information. All applications will be online only using www.elicense.ct.gov.
