Conflicting information on renewing learners permit

    My last learners permit is expired and I want to get a new one. On the application it says that you need to provide evidence of a forthcoming driving test appointment. Thats fine but on the RSA online driving test application it says that you cannot apply for a driving test unless you have valid learner permit?

    I was thinking of just applying for the driving test anyway and putting down my driver number from my last learner permit but I don't know if that number changes with each license you are issued?

    Are you applying for your 2nd or 3rd learners permit?
    If it's your 2nd permit, you dont need evidence of a test application to get a renewal.
    If it's your 3rd , you need evidence of a test application - in effect a confirmation letter ( the RSA send you this when you apply for your test) to get a renewed learner permit.

    Otherwise you have to do your theory test again.

    BTW, a driver number is not evidence of a test application

    Cheers for the info guys. If my driver number doesn't change then I wonder if I can apply online for the test and then print off something to the effect that I've applied for the test and present this at the motor tax office tomorrow morning along with my application. It would save me a lot of time.

    Also I think this is my 4th learner permit, long story but I never actually did any driving on my second and third.
