Bonus points are awarded if a person is unsuccessful in obtaining a moose permit through the drawing, beginning with the 1998 drawing.

 

1)     One point is awarded for each consecutive year the applicant applies and is not selected for a moose permit.

2)     Each bonus point accumulated gives the individual an additional chance in the drawing.

3)     Bonus points are tracked using a Department issued identification number (IF&W ID #) or a social security number. 

4)     Bonus points are not transferable.

 

To receive bonus points, the applicant must:

 

a)     apply on a Department approved application; and

b)     provide a Department issued identification number (IF&W ID #)  or social security number.

 

To ensure you receive your bonus points, be sure to use either your department issued number (IF&W ID #) or your social security number.   Make sure to use the same number as the previous year.

 

New applicants who do not wish to provide their social security number, will leave both the IF&W ID number box and the social security number box on the application blank, and the Department will assign the number.

 

If you applied in 2002, but do not remember your IF&W ID number, please e-mail IF&W. 

 

A person changing from the Department issued number (IF&W ID#), to using the applicant’s social security number, or vice versa, must provide both numbers on the application to maintain the accumulated points.

 

 

*IMPORTANT BONUS POINTS ARE FORFEITED IF THE APPLICANT:

a)     skips a year in applying by failing to purchase a chance;

b)     obtains a permit through the moose drawing;

c)      is selected for a permit and later declines and/or fails to meet the criteria for legally possessing that permit;

d)     is found to have not legally applied in the current year; or

e)     fails to apply using the correct identification number to track the applicant’s bonus points.
