How the IMLCC process works
- 01Choose a state of principal license: a member state where you hold a full license and live, practice, are employed, or file federal taxes.
- 02Apply to the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact Commission (IMLCC); that state's board verifies your eligibility.
- 03Receive a Letter of Qualification.
- 04Select member states and pay each state's license fee; each state issues its own license.
- 05Renew each state license separately on its own cycle.
What Rivon does
- 01Checks the IMLCC eligibility rules against your record before you pay any fees.
- 02Prepares and files the IMLCC application and member-state selections.
- 03Tracks each state license, DEA registration and renewal afterwards.
What we don't control
The IMLCC and state boards set their own processing times. Rivon removes paperwork and errors; it doesn't guarantee a timeline. Current rules and member states are published at imlcc.com.
