Driver record from California for DL exchange in Ontario

[piyushjain0509]

In Ontario, you need the document mailed to you from the dmv. They dont accept the print outs given by the local office or from online. They are adamant in not accepting even if you show the driver license, seems that they think that all are fake. So dont take chances, you will have to get the document mailed from dmv head office hence request soon and get it while moving.
So use the form https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/detail/online/dr/welcome INF1125 (PDF). Possibly get the certified one(seems no charge).
This should have the date issued and expiry.

FYI - I moved from MI, not from CA.

I am trying to understand how to fill up this form (especially section 3 and 4) https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/file/...istration-vr-information-record-inf-1125-pdf/ Can you please tell me which boxes need to be ticked?

I assume you would do mail in request.
section3: thinking it would be current record and first issue date. (canada needs to know from when the DL was issued to calculate/validate your number of years experience via this record from dmv rather than trusting the actual license)
section4: not required as its for vehicle.

I am posting our experience in transfering our California AB -60 license to Ontario.
California DL history didnt have the first issue date. We had around 4 years of history,but the history showed issue date as the most recent license renewal date which was 1.5 years only. We went to drive test center: 1405 Ottawa St N Unit 11, Kitchener, ON N2A 3Z1. They were really helpful and asked us if we could bring the DL history with the first issue date. But we explained that California doesnt provide that, and we gave our current valid license and all previous original licenses. The previous licenses were all expired and had continuous dates. They accepted it and we got the G license right away. Only procedure was they took eye test,photo and payment. You will need an address,since the license will be mailed to that address. You will get a temporary license valid for 90 days. They didnt ask for address proof.

Hope this help

Can they provide the G drivers license with out having initial date in California DL extract ?

I asked my bro to mail it for me and put his address as return address. Keep in mind they don't accept scans so it has to have original sign. Check the box 'certify as true copy'. Rest of the stuff in the form is pretty straightforward. I think the requests in mail have the original issue date.

Can california DMV Sacramento office mail our extract to our brother or friends home address with in USA ?
