it hasn’t more than 3 months since I’m here

I have been living here for 3 months

I don't understand your problem and these statements are contradictory. How long have you been living in the UK?

You don't need to have lived here 3 months to get a provisional licence. They ask for all your addresses (UK and foreign) over the last 3 years

 

I added my name to my husband’s council tax and gas bill to get address proof

Both were straightforward - is this an option for you?

I got my national insurance (NI) number next and then applied to add my name to his bank account (bank had needed proof of my tax status and NI number)

I know that you need to be resident in the UK for 185 days to sit for the driving test. Not sure about provisional

I remember filling up a paper form for my provisional from the post office as I wasn’t eligible for the online form

My passport is in my maiden name and DVLA wanted my BRP card and marriage certificate along with the application

They returned my documents and I got my provisional quite quickly

 

Thanks for replies everyone.. I was able to apply for provisional license before I ignored that it had option to choose non GB address for previous address. No I couldn’t go for council tax as it’s on my husband’s mum name and to open an account in bank they needed address proof so I chose to apply for provisional driving license. I’m suppose to get form posted to my address and fill it up and send it back with my brp. I hope they will safely send my brp card after verifying. Do they return it safely? Again thanks for your comments. [emoji846]

Hi

I sent my original passport, BRP and UK marriage certificate with my paper application

I also included a stamped, self-addressed special delivery envelope (the silver one from the post office) for my documents to be returned to me

Take a picture of the tracking code on the envelope before sending it

I got my documents back in 7 days

The licence arrived soon after by normal post

 

Hi, So what kind of envelope should I ask for at post office? Do I need to send envelope inside envelope? I got the form today to fill up and send back with ID.
