hello guys,

Thanks to this forum for all help.

I was wondering is anyone can give me some information on how to chance(if possible) USA driver's license to Ontario?
we are doing inland application, and it would be great to have canadian driver's license.

Is it possible to change it while application is still in progress ( submitted few weeks ago)?

Will they ask any stamp in passport/ visa extension? ( I dont have stamp in passport, my visitor status is till november 9th, i didnt extend visa since we applied for open work permit)

Which documents needed other than drivers license? ( driver's record?)

which office in Toronto area would you advice?

Any help/ advice is very appreciated.

Thank you

I took my (expired) drivers license, my passport and 7 year driving record. They give you a paper copy of your G license which you can drive with until you receive your card which takes about 2 weeks. It was $80 and took less than 30 minutes. I went to the College Park office. I will say the staff and supervisor I spoke with were friendlier and more helpful than anyone in the states I've ever dealt with at the DMV.

I'll hafta try that College Park office. The rest of them aren't friendly, half don't know what they're doing, and are not helpful at all. I do as much as I can online just to avoid MTO offices.
