Driver's license expired since 2003.Mar. Able to renewal?

[jonathan1977]

Dear Respected seniors:

I had been driving with my license for 8 yrs in Toronto when I was a visa student in Toronto.
Now, I am planning to go back to Canada as a PR next April.
Am I able to renew my liense without taking any tests?

Or I have to start all over again?

Thank you in advance

Jonathan

If a driver's licence has been invalid (expired, cancelled or suspended) for more than one, but fewer than three years, you must visit a DriveTest Centre to complete a vision test. If your licence has invalid for more than three years, you must pass vision, knowledge and road tests. If your licence has been invalid for over three years but not more than 10 years, you have to reapply under Graduated Licensing at a DriveTest Centre — the mandatory waiting periods are waived. If your licence has been invalid for over ten years, you have to reapply under graduated licensing at a DriveTest Centre and serve all the mandatory waiting periods.
