Hi, I also have a question regarding DEA. I'm currently not working, and am looking for a NP job. I was asked by one of the employer to get my DEA before I can start or even being hired. But as my understanding, we need a "practice address" for the DEA application. I asked during phone interview that I'm eligible to apply for DEA, once I'm hired, then I'll have a practice address to complete the application. But the recruiter replied that I can't use their address for this. I must have DEA before they can hire me. Can someone help me to figure out this question? I'm in AZ. Thanks in advance.
