After months of waiting, the Justice Department just went live with an online application. More than 20,000 people are eligible.
Nearly five months after promising pardons for federal convictions for marijuana possession, President Biden has actually made progress on the action.

Earlier this morning, the Department of Justice’s Office of the Pardon Attorney announced the publication of an application form dedicated to those who wish to redress a past federal weed conviction.

Those who wish to apply can do so via the online portal here.

Here’s what you’ll need to apply
The intake form asks for the usual information: Name, address, phone, birthdate, etc.

There are also supporting documents that you’ll want to gather.

You’ll want to know:

Which US District Court heard your case
The Code Section (statute of your charge/conviction)
Your case docket number
You’ll also want to have on hand:

The charging document (indictment, complaint, etc)
The judgment of conviction or sentencing
You’ll need to take a photo of those documents, and then save them as pdf’s, in order to upload them to the online application form.
