How long is my learner permit still valid for? 4 or 8 months?

I am me123

My learner permit was due to expire in April 2020.
Is the expiry date extended by 4 months or 8 months now from the original expiry date owing to the COVID 19 pandemic?

Thanks for any info in advance.

I haven't heard anything about learner permits being extended. Currently on a learners permit myself and in the process of doing the lessons. Instructor didnt mention it, and we've spoken about the expiry date of mine.

All learner permits that expired between 1 March and 30 June 2020 have already been extended by four months. For permits expiring between 1 July and 31 October 2020 (including those already extended), the validity period of those permits has also been extended for a further four months.

Thanks. Its just confusing me so is mine extended by 4 months or 8 months now if my original expiry date was in April 2020? Is the new expiration date in August or December 2020?

Reads to me 8 months. Your first extension of 4 months and "(including those already extended), the validity period of those permits has also been extended for a further four months" so a further 4 months. Which would be until December.

There is a licence/permit expiry calculator on ndls.ie, that might help
