Peculiar situation with Ontario driving licence.

Hi all,

I'm asking this question on behalf of an Indian friend who's coming to Canada as a FSW PR as he doesn't have an account here. He used to live in Canada between 2011-2016 and had a full G licence. After that he went back home and only now he got the chance to come back to Canada as a PR. His G licence expired in 2017 and if I look at the website of drivetest then it says that if a licence has expired between 3-10 years then the person needs to take two road tests G1 and G2 and they can be fast tracked.

If he shows his drivers history from India, can he bypass the G2 exam and go straight to G exam since he already held an Ontario DL with a clean abstract. Does anyone has any experience with this type of situation at all?

What was the legal status of your friend when he lived in Canada? Already PR or temp worker?
