The application form is available on the department's website. The department shall not approve an application that does not include the information requested on the application form.

(2) Upon the completion, verification, and approval of the primary caregiver's application, the department shall issue a registration card to the primary caregiver.

(3) A registration card issued to a primary caregiver shall contain all of the following:

a. The primary caregiver's full legal name, current residence address, date of birth, and sex designation, as shown on the primary caregiver's valid photo identification. If the primary caregiver's information has changed since issuance of the primary caregiver's valid photo identification, the primary caregiver shall first update the primary caregiver's valid photo identification to reflect the primary caregiver's current information.

b. The date of issuance and the date of expiration, which shall be one year from the date of issuance.

c. A distinguishing registration number that is not the primary caregiver's social security number.

d. The registration number for each patient in the primary caregiver's care. This number shall not be the primary caregiver's or patient's social security number. If the patient in the primary caregiver's care is under the age of 18, the full name of the patient's parent or legal guardian shall be printed on the primary caregiver's registration card in lieu of the patient's registration number.

e. A statement that the registration card is not valid for identification purposes.

f. A statement distinguishing the registration cardholder as a primary caregiver.

(4) An authorization to use, or to act as a primary caregiver for a patient authorized to use, medical cannabidiol or cannabis for medicinal purposes issued by another state, territory, or jurisdiction does not satisfy the requirements of Iowa Code chapter 124E and is not a valid registration card for purposes of purchasing medical cannabidiol at dispensaries in Iowa.
