Hi, I posted a bit ago that my provisional was revoked under medical condition for 3 months. I'm confused on how to reapply when the time comes.

Like what am I meant to do? Do I just apply with a D1 form all over again and go through the whole medical application again? That took a whole year to get sorted out just for it to be revoked and that's the last thing I need again.

    It says on the letter 'We can only consider a re application from you when you have been stable for longer than 3 months' (paraphrasing). This would be in March so next month. What happens then? Do I just do a D1 form again, new photo and put medical condition again and go through the exact same process? My GP told me she sees me as fit to drive but it's just because she put that I'm not stable (I wasn't so not blaming her) that they revoked it. Totally understand their decision and glad they take it seriously. I just hate the idea of going through it all again and paying again too.

    Yes it appears so:

    "To reapply, fill in the form for your medical condition and a D1 application form, and send them to DVLA."

    If you've done a medical application fairly recently that should hopefully make it easier

    🤞

    Ah thank you. The doctor did my medical application last month and I got the result in days. It was just the doctor took ages to actually do it. Hopefully it's a lot sooner than last time

    It seems to be a common issue with administrative tasks and GPs, understaffed and oversubscribed 😕 I hope it is all resolved soon and you get your answer about your license soon!
