Learn how to submit your public draw application to hunt in New Mexico with this step by step tutorial.

Hunters who have applied for licenses the past three seasons already are familiar with the system, as they have been required to obtain a Customer ID Number online before applying. Going paperless will simply extend that process. Since the Department first began offering online applications in 2005, the number of online applicants has increased from 54 percent to 82 percent.

Having all applications online will eliminate time consuming sorting and counting, further increasing accuracy and speeding up the process considerably. Hunters will know their draw results one month after the deadline, instead of having to wait three months under the old system. Unsuccessful applicants also will receive their refunds much sooner.

License and application fees will be charged at the time of application. Applicants can pay by credit card or electronic check, a new convenience beginning next year. Once an application is complete, it cannot be changed, only deleted. Applicants can reapply, and will receive a refund for the deleted application after the draw.
