Common reasons applications are rejected
Try to avoid these common mistakes to make sure your application is processed in a timely manner.
- Applying to soon. Applications received prior to the dates listed above will be returned.
- Reaching your personal limit. Avoid applying for more than one license on 7/11/22. You may apply for your second license as of 8/1/22 and your third as of 8/15/22.
- Expired hunting privileges. Be sure to renew your hunting privileges before applying. Senior Lifetime holders must renew their privileges each year.
- Incorrect payment. Please note the price increase in 2021 to $6.97 for a Pennsylvania resident and $26.97 for a non-resident.
- Combining payment for a group on one check. We recommend separate checks for each application so your group transaction does not get returned if we are unable to process all applications in the group.
