DEA with a felony

Published

Hello,

I had a felony charge of CDS in 1996. I completed the probation and never had another run in with the law since. I was young and stupid and made a really bad decision. I can't expunge the charge because the state this happened in doesn't allow it no matter how old the charge is.

So fast forward...I been an RN since 2010. I have an AA, BSN and MSN. I am also nationally certified as a PMHNP. The state I plan to practice in did issue me a controlled substance registration knowing about this old charge. Has anyone had issues with getting a DEA registration with an old state felony charge? Will have to do the just cause hearing?

I am really worried because I obtained my first NP job and I am scheduled to start in May but only after I get a DEA registration and the credentialing is complete.

Thank You!
