How long does it take before I can resume driving once my licence is reinstated?
A14: Once your medical report is approved and entered on the ministry’s database your driver’s licence is reinstated immediately. The actual licence card will take approximately 6 weeks, however, in most cases a temporary driver’s licence is attached to your reinstatement notice. The reinstatement notice will come in the mail a few days after your reinstatement is processed. If you cannot wait to receive the reinstatement notice and would like to obtain a temporary licence sooner you can visit your local Driver and Vehicle Issuing Office, pay the required fee and receive a temporary licence.
