Live in Wicklow, get licence in Dublin?

Anyone know if you have to renew your licence or apply for a learner permit in the county where your address is? Dublin would be handier and is supposed to take up to 5 days where Wicklow said it takes at least 4 weeks!

Can't answer the main question but an earlier thread said that you can get the renewal across the counter in Cork, that's if you're really desperate and want it ASAP.

I was in Ballymun last week and they had an announcement saying that if you lived in a different area you had to get your paperwork sorted there. That they would only process applications that had addresses attached to the local authority.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll give it go so and if it doesn't work out, try to think of an 'urgent' excuse for Wicklow!
