How long must a licensee wait before applying for a new license if their license is revoked?

When a license is revoked, the licensee is subjected to a waiting period before they can apply for a new license. In the case of Georgia, the established waiting period is five years. This timeframe is meant to ensure that the individual has time to address any issues that led to the revocation and to demonstrate compliance with regulatory standards before being granted a new license. Such a policy ultimately aims to uphold the integrity of the licensing process by ensuring that only qualified individuals can obtain a license after serious infractions.
