Just wanted to post a positive experience with the licencing process. Applied on Wednesday on my tablet for my NSW R licence, used the camera to upload all supporting documentation. Had a response immediately saying it was under review then late Thursday afternoon was issued an interim permit until the physical copy arrives, was very pleased with the online service.
So I could be hunting this weekemd, if only I had the time!
Hardest part of the whole process was finding an approved trainer to sit the test with, but that was just cos I couldn't find anywhere to do it in QLD.
