DEA License Question

Hi Everyone, I just had a question regarding the DEA license process. I've searched around trying to find the answer to this question.

Anyways, I'm licensed to practice with furnishing in CA. I applied for my DEA license and I don't have a job yet, so therefore I don't have a business address they have on the application. I was told in class that we could apply before getting a job and other students said the same. However, the DEA emailed me today and they are asking me for a business address not a home address. I'm confused on how you go about getting a DEA license before a job? I looked elsewhere and they said you can have one without a business address just have to update them when you get it.

I am just wondering if anyone else has applied for it without having a place to work as a NP. I do have a job currently as an RN so I don't know if I can use it while I'm looking for a job even though I'm not dispensing there?

Thanks!!

    A friend of mine put her home address and didn't have a problem in SoCal.

    "If you are applying for an Individual Registration (Practitioner, MLP, Researcher) you are required to provide your Full Name, Address, Social Security Number, and Phone Number. If you are applying for a Business Registration, you are required to provide the Name of the Business, Address, Tax ID, and Phone Number."

    It doesn't say a business address is required.

    Oh, and on a semi-related note, if you applied for your NPI using your home address you want to change that ASAP once you get a job.
