I had applied for driving license in the past but didn’t complete the process and my learning license was expired. After two years I got the learner’s license again and tried applying for driving license. As I filled the learner’s license number the website was showing that your application is pending so I thought I had applied already. Therefore, I paid the fees and when I got the fee receipt I got to know that this application was the old one and the learner’s license number was the old one which was expired. Now I have already paid the fees and filled the form but the learner’s license number is the old one, how can I correct the learner’s license number and do I have to repay for this procedure?
first you need to cancel your application and reapply to new learner licence. you must cancel your old application after you will apply.
