How to get driving experience authentication letter from RTO?

[nevillek]

Hi guys,

I've read all the threads related to this and it seems most people have a hard time in getting the driving exp letter from RTO on their letterhead (to bypass G2 exam). I have the format of the letter but I called one driving school here in Mumbai and they too said RTO won't issue such letters as they don't know if you really have the driving experience even though I have the DL since 2011.

He asked me to get an intl. license, but I don't think that's an alternative.

I spoke to another driving school and they said they can get a DL EXTRACT for me, but RTO has no letterhead!

Can someone help? Does anyone have a real letter from RTO that I can show them to get the work done? I would be highly obliged.

I did it from Kerala RTO. Please ask for an Extract for your license. They will provide a letter stating the details that can be used in Canada.

Tip
If you get no claim letter from your insurance company for the recent years along with the ownership / vehicle registration copy, you get a good discount on the insurance premium in Canada. Otherwise insurance is a major expense.

I can get the DL extract but it's not on letterhead. Was yours on a letterhead? If not, did they accept it without letterhead?

I have never owned a vehicle in India.

It was... Printed on top with RTO address Ang Govt of Kerala with logo. But if you can get it with official stamp and seal of the signing authority...it should be Ok
