AZ License Expiration

[BuckRut]

I'm sure we've been over this before but I've never had it end up this close before. If my AZ license expires 6/3/2025 and the draw deadline is 6/3/2025 am I still good?

Yup

The draw deadline is Feb 4.

I think he’s talking about the deer and sheep deadline. I’ve had the same question, but for elk since mine expires 2.4.25. From what I know, I’m good to go

Reading is hard - I just bought my license, set the start date to 2/4, then tried to apply. LICENSE NEEDS TO BE VAILID TO APPLY. Guess I have to wait until the last day to put in my app...

Yeah, I think that's always been the rule but it was never enforced. I've bought futured dates licenses in the past and was able to apply before the license was active. We'll see if that crashes the system on the 4th this year.

Even if your license expired on Feburary 5, you would still get a point for the draw- it needs to be valid on the deadline date.

Did the same thing.

Same. They are unintentionally(i assume) forcing most people to apply on the last day.

This should go well.

Next year’s date is LIKELY February 3rd (1st Tuesday of February) so same day license purchase this year will cover next year’s point application.

Per AZGF, if there’s a system shut down, be prepared to call in for assistance. Extra bodies will be there til midnight taking calls for assistance.

It's AZ most people buy there license on the last day so they can get 2 yrs of pts out of one license...

I usually buy mine ahead of time and set the start date of the license to the draw deadline date. I think lots of other folks do the same.
