You need to be at least 18 to apply for a medical marijuana card if you meet New York’s strenuous eligibility requirements. But even under the age of 18, you can have your parents apply for a medical marijuana card on your behalf if you meet New York’s eligibility requirements. The first step in the process is to see your physician and see if medical marijuana is an option to help you and if you will be eligible to the requirements.
