NEW teen licensing process as of March 16, 2021
- Once the individual passes the Segment 1 course, the individual will visit a local branch office with all required documents, a photo will be taken, and a hard card will be issued and mailed.
- Once the individual has passed the driving skills test and the customer is eligible, they will be automatically upgraded to a GDL Level 2 and a letter of progression will be mailed to the customer. They can also access this letter on their e-Services account.
- As soon as an individual is eligible, they will be automatically upgraded to GDL level 3 and a letter of progression will be mailed to the customer. They can also access this letter on their e-Services account.
- As long as the individual has progressed to a GDL 2 or GDL 3 by their 18th birthday, a new operator's license will be automatically issued and mailed to the individual. The individual can log into e-Services to obtain a temporary license while they wait for the new license.
If the individual never progressed past the GDL Level 1, they will need to visit a branch and follow the standard process for obtaining a driver license.
