Moose license application

I haven't participated in Moose licensing for a long time and am leery of the complaints of this new online system. However, I just bought my deer license online without any hiccups.

Before I embark on buying a Moose license online, I have a question: I'll be an individual pool 2 applicant obviously, which means essentially zero chance of a tag, but can I buy the license as an individual, without entering any code, and go back and modify the application (enter codes) before the deadline passes?

The only reason being, to keep options open if an opportunity to join a group at the last minute arises, then I can enter the appropriate code and group number. If it is safer to not rely on modifying the application, then I'll wait until near the deadline to buy the license and enter my individual snowballs chance codes. Answers are appreciated, thanks.

If it were me, I’d wait until you get the information you need to apply.

you can buy your licence then later, before the deadline, apply to the draw. As far as i know you cannot modify your application yourself after you submit it so you want to be sure of your choices before hand. It may be best to buy your licence and apply at the same time. Both will work tho.

I bought my Moose license and entered the draw at the same time using the new on-line system and printed the license summary with the draw preferences showing plus the transactions of the other licenses on the profile. I'm given to understand that the tags may be mailed once the draw is complete and results are released after Aug 1 or the option to print it on-line will also be available. The choice is ours.

I sent an email to MNRF, asking about when or how we are to be advised of draw results. They responded saying that after August 20, we will be able to print off our moose or deer tags. It doesn’t sound like they will be sending tags out....

Yeah I think waiting is the right way to go rather than risk not being able to later.

I bought my licence by phoning in the same as last year so I guess they will be mailing them out.

You wont be getting any mail. You'll either have to go to Service Ontario after the draw or print it on your own.

No sir.

You're now responsible for acquiring the license after the draw (August). You need to either go to Service Ontario or print it on your own.

Why would they ask me to verify my postal code then? I am curious.

Likely as a security feature to confirm you are you.
