    In order to renew my learners permit for my 3rd one do I need an actual date for a test or.if I just apply will that be enough.. reason for asking is only have 9 lessons done and license is expiring in March.. so can't get an actual date until I do the other 3 lessons..

    You don't need a test date. You can make the booking in order for you to receive the permit so that you can continue to take your lessons. In fact, if your permit is up for renewal in March, you can renew it early now. They can't issue you a test date until you complete your EDT lessons.

    Do they take your current learner permit off you if you renew it early, so you have to take a break from your lessons while you wait for your new one?

    They'll only take your permit if it's expired. They'll give it back if it's still in date (even by a day) on the basis that you post it in when you get your new permit.

    Oh that's great news because I'm no where near taking my test had the 9 lessons a year ago and haven't really driven since just too nervous and no confidence even though everyone says im well able to drive still terrified of it need to pull the thumb out now and get back to it and get over my irrational fear of driving..
