I'm not sure how long it takes for reciprocity, but it only took a week or two for both my EMT and paramedic license in GA. I would guess that reciprocity would take a little longer though. Maybe expect a couple weeks to a month? Call the state office and ask.

By the way, are you a B or an I? A lot of services in GA will not hire B's. Just FYI.
