RPa695 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Anyone, How long did it take your DEA license to come through? I just got my license and am about to apply for my DEA. My employer is not very familiar with new grads and doesn't know the timeline. Also, does an employer usually cover the cost of this? I realized it's $731 which is pretty pricey for someone who hasn't started working yet. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyJ Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Mine took a couple weeks. The expense comes out of my CME budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cicero33168 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Comes pretty quick and you can print out temp on line. If your employer expects you to write for narcotics, they had better pay for the DEA otherwise you do not need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gebaldwi Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Mine took about 1.5 weeks. And my employer did not cover it, nor was it covered under CME. They did say they'd cover the renewal.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paula Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Too bad your employer didn't cover it. Note to new grads: when discussing a job contract make sure your new employer includes your license fees as part of your benefits/CME package. $731 a ridiculous cost. 8 years ago mine was $330 or so, then 530, then 731. Next renewal in 2 years for me what will it be??????? Sorry to get off topic. Renewals are instantaneous on line and you can print it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
