Answer 4

Hiya :)

You get your identity documents back before your actual license arrives, and on that letter, it says you could be waiting up to 4 weeks, but mine only took 5 days!! So really, you'll probably be waiting less than a week :)  

Answer 5

I might be wrong... but can;t you apply for a provisional before you are 17, and it only becomes valid in your 17th birthday?

Answer 6

About 3 weeks if you send off the paperwork or 2 weeks if you do it online.

Answer 7

i think 3 week I cant remember when i got mine
