    Hi, Okay so I am getting my learner permit tomorrow but of course disaster has struck. I have two problems, the first being with proof of address. Since I am only 17 the only proof of address I have is a bank statement but I only just realised that my address is spelt wrong on it. I know that the NDLS are strict with this so what do I do, is there any way to get a new statement with the right address before 3 o'clock tomorrow?

    Problem two is with my eyesight report. I got it done today and when I got home I realised my name was spelt wrong. Is this serious, will they accept it or do I need to try and get a new form from the optician?

    I am freaking out right now!!!! Please help!!!!

    I'd go back and ask them for a fresh report with the proper spellings same for the bank statement

    I don't have much knowledge when it comes to bank statements, I know that I should probably know this but am I able to just go into the bank and ask for a statement and for them to change my details? Do i have to make a lodgement?

    NDLS now accepts the Theory cert as proof address providing it is no more than 1 year old. However, eyesight might be more problematic depending on how different the spelling is.

    Okay that is a relief that they accept the theory cert for address. For my name the eyesight report has an extra i, do you think that will be a big deal?
