Hello,

I have driven in UAE for 10 yrs , my driving license expired on January 2022 . I cannot renew my license anymore because I am not a UAE resident. What quick options do I have to get the driving license in Canada?

I have never driven in India, so don't have any license.

Regards
Vikram

Look at the requirements for getting a driver’s license in the province you live in. Not sure there is a quick option.

But you came to Canada in May 2022 (more than 6 months ago)! If by now, you might already have a valid Canadian driver license if you didn't fail on your tests. Btw, you need a valid PR card in order to get a Canadian driver license.

I agree. I have been slacking. Sorry one question - MY canadian PR expires in July next year. Assuming I take my theory test next month, and I guess i will have to wait for 10-12 months since I don't have a valid D/L ( only have the expired one ) , does it mean I would still not be able to get the license since my PR card will be expired by then?

Not sure, but you may get a temporary one.
