How to Fill Out Health Canada Medical Marijuana Access Forms

[MissKittyKat]

Many people need help with the MMAR forms that Health Canada has. If you make a mistake or do not complete it in such a way they will send it back and you won't get your license.

Here are the steps and what to do for each part of it.

STEPS:

1. Make an appointment with your doctor. He or she will need to fill out Form B1, or B2,

and sign your passport photos.

2. Get passport photos taken ( 2 ) you will need these for form A1. Your doctor will have

to sign the back of the photograph indicating that this is a true likeness of you.

Complete the Release Form for Medical Practitioners (This form is not mandatory and

can be left with your doctor for his/her records - Health Canada should not be sent this

form)

3. You should fill out this form before your appointment. (This form was written by The

Canadian Medical Protective Association, and in 2005 they issued this form to all the

doctors in Canada for this purpose) Your Canadian medical practitioner is released of

responsibility for the prescription of medical marihuana once they receive this document

filled in correctly.
