Change address on day of test?

[FuzzyBallz]

Hi, new to the forum and new to riding, sorry my first post is a question, but I will be sticking around in the future as I hope to be a fully fledged biker soon!

I am currently living at my mum's and have my Mod 2 next Friday.

I have bought a house and have been doing it up whilst still living at my mum's.

I am planning on moving into my house early next week.

Should I fill my new address out on my counterpart now or just wait to see if I pass my test, and then when we get back to the test centre tell him I need to change my address before he sends my license off? (is this acceptable)

I don't want to send license off now as I need it for the test, and I don't really want to fill the counterpart in now incase I fail my test and he sends my license off and I've got to wait for my license to come back before I can retake the test.

Sorry if it all sounds like a load of waffle!

When/if you pass your Mod 2 it is strongly recommended that you let the examiner take your licence and have him send it to DVSA to add your A entitlement. This method allows you to keep your pass certificate which may be useful if they magically lose your entitlement (it has happened) as you have retained proof of passing.

In short. Don't mention moving out, pass the mod 2 and hand your licence over. You'll be sent a new one to your folks house. Then apply online to change the address separately. It gives the lowest odds that Doovla will cock anything up.

Oooo don't fancy going through it twice!

I'll leave it to be as smooth as possible then.

When I've changed my address on my licence, they've been pretty quick to send me a new one, so you shouldn't be waiting for long after you change the address.

But yeah, wait until after.
