Hi All
Has anyone tried applying for a DL - I got hold of the forms and there is a question where proof of identity is needed and it says someone has to have known you for two years in the UK!
I have a nephew over here from India on an Education Visa and he was somehow able to get a DL without that - but dont know how..
Any idea's? It would be a useful piece of evidence for the FLR but Rina is keen to learn how to drive anyway.
Cheers

I've just figured it out - got hold of the notes and those app notes say you have to visit a DVLA Office. :doh
Hope this helps someone!

Ah. Good. Did you send a photocopy of your passport, or the actual passport?

I agree with gparry:rolleyes: you need to send your actual passport to DVLA and then they will send it back to you. You can also enclose a Special Delivery envelope as it safe and fast. Hope this will help.
