    There's not much you can do about it unfortunately, you can apply before the 6 months though, so long as you've held your learners permit for exactly 6 months come the day of your test you're good to go.

    the company over there says that isn't a option but that was before we knew of the 6 month wait. i don't know if i can actually on a work visa or not. i'l check it out. i've only just got the learners permit. i understand the idea behind it but needed to vent.
