    Informative. However, the Drivers Extract is now invalid and will not be of any use as they now request for a Letter from the Nigerian Embassy. Getting this letter is not an issue. Check online for the Drive History Letter from Nigerian Embassy and you will see the requirements. Cost you $100 Money order and you need to send it with a self addressed envelope. Everything is around a $150. Good luck guys.

    With existing driving experience from home country (which allows to bypass the G2 test); upon completion of the knowledge test - what type of license will I be holding? and will I be able to drive immediately without taking the final G test?

    • @MykokosDiary
      @MykokosDiary  10 місяців тому +1

      You get G1 after passing the knowledge test, it's a learning permit. You can only drive with an instructor.

    After taking your test for G1 , how long do you have to wait to get the license

    • @MykokosDiary

      You get the G1 license immediately after passing the test.

    • @pingpong3311

      They issue a temporary license after you pass your test. The card would come in 2 to 6 weeks from the day you passed your test.

    • @MykokosDiary
      @MykokosDiary  2 роки тому +1

      You can't drive with a G1 license without an experienced driver with you. Research other limitations. I'm not sure about buying a car with a G1 license tho. You can call/visit any dealership to find out.

    • @pingpong3311

    Great information. How did you get your extract in Nigeria please.

    • @MykokosDiary
      @MykokosDiary  2 роки тому

      You can send a request to info@frsc.gov.ng, you'll however need to call their call center to make arrangements for them to send it to you. The other option is to apply through the Nigerian High Commission in Ottawa (nigeriahcottawa.ca/drivers-license-letter/).

    • @MykokosDiary
      @MykokosDiary  Рік тому

      Depending on which province you're visiting, you may be able to drive with your license for a short duration. Check online for the address of the province's ministry of transportation. Also, you shouldn't need a Canadian drivers license if you're only coming here for a visit.

    • @pingpong3311
      @pingpong3311 8 місяців тому

      If you're staying as a tourist, you may only need an international license from your home country.

    • @MykokosDiary
      @MykokosDiary  Рік тому +1

      The purpose of the extract is to prove how long you've been driving. I'm not sure if 1 year is enough. It's your decision.

      Your best bet is to ask the officials after passing the knowledge test .
