How long does it take to receive the Ontario Health Card

Hello, everyone. After you got the decision notice, how long did you apply for the health card? I applied for a month and haven't received it yet!

you would have been given a paper as a temporary card so you have accesses to services so there is no need to wait for the card if you need medical care

Thank you, I have this piece of paper. I just want to know if we have a card? After all, paper is inconvenient to carry, how long will it take to receive this card?

Up to a few months but usually shorter.
