Hi all,

Hoping somebody can help me as I'm a bit confused.
I have my Irish driving license from:
Issued:22/08/14
Expiry 13/08/24

I moved to Ontario in November 2015 (By this date I had my full license just over a year by this stage), I'm currently residing in Ontario for the last 4 years with my Irish License. I'm not sure if I fall under less than 2 years of driving experience or not.
As per the website would the below apply to me or could I get the Ontario Full License?

Less than 2 years driving experience (with exchange)
You need to take:

  • an eye test, when you apply
  • one road test (the G2 road test)
You will not be able to do the G2 road test right away. You need to wait until you gain two, full years of driving experience. For example, if you had a licence for 21 months in your home province, state or country, you can do the G2 road test after 3 months in Ontario. After you pass the G2 road test, you get a full licence.

While you wait, you can drive with your G1 licence, under certain conditions.

Thanks for any help.
