Applying for test before the six months is up

Hi I couldn't find any mention of this in another thread but if it has been covered and I missed it you can delete this.

I obtained my learner permit in June and my insructor told me that you have to wait at least six months before you can sit your test. I had a quick look at the application form for the test and didn't see anywhere that asked you when your permit was issued (although I could have missed it). Could I apply for my it or when I took it would the tester take one look at my permit and cancel the test.

If I'm going about things the honest way

, I can take my test from mid December on. If applied now I probably would get it for around that time anyway, but if I got a date sooner could I get away with it?

When you go in to do your test you have to sign a declaration that you've had a learner permit for more than 6 months and that you're insured and road worthy etc. Your tester will also check your licence. They'd just cancel your test there and then and your money would go down the drain. Wait the 6 months.

There should be a comment box on the application form. This is where you should write in the date you can do the test by.

I'll wait till December then. Thanks for clarifying that for me.

Hi,

There has been a new Driving Test Application Form out for some time now.

Includes a new Line:-

What is the reference code and date of issue on your learner permit in the category applied for?

See it here :- Driving Test Application Form
