Obtaining a provisional driving license

[bruneicop]

Hi all,

just wondering if my wife can get a provisional driving license on a visit visa or does she have to wait until we get the spouse visa?

As a start look here for overall process:-

and here for ID verification:-

Not quite as quick simple as it used to be, but with compliant ID's and documents and
ability to have passport with DVLA for between 4-8 weeks then it's OK
