hello ulit
baka my same situation sakin.. kanina sa SErvice NSW sinabi nila di daw nila ma accept ang LTO license ko kasi hindi same sa system nila ang driving codes kasi new ang license ko last May 2022 ko lang nakuha.. ang codes are B1, B2 and B3 for manual and automatic but sa system nila is yun old pa yata yun 1,2,3..
sabi nila need ko daw ito ipa confirm sa PH consulate dito..
sa link na nabasa ko sa PH consulate for Certification of PH license.. need ko pa daw ipa Apostille sa DFA sa PH..
confirm ko lang if my same na situtaion sakin and did you undergo having the certification APostille sa DFA? or di ba pwede sa PH consulate nlang ako pumunta at sila ang magconfirm?

nagpa-renew ako ng PH License last July 2022. Then got my NSW full license last August. wala naman naging issue. kung hindi ko nabasa post mo, hindi ko malalaman na B1, B2 na pala ang codes ng PH license. Try approaching a different Service or another staff.

Nagtanong ako sa Chatbox sa NSW
For 189 and 190, Mandatory kumuha ng Driver's Licence ng NSW. May sinet sila number of months.
If 491 Visa and others, you can use your overseas driver's licence.
Pero may option rin na magapply o hindi. Basta valid visa and valid overseas driver's licence.
Ito yung requirements
1. Passing the Driver's Knowledge Test - if meron ka overseas licence, $49
2. Passing the Driver's Test - $60
*Driver's Licence - $194 for 5 years, $362 for 10 years.
If wala ka experience sa driving and you need to drive in NSW,
Passing the Driver's Knowldge Test $49
Learner Licence - S26, 12 months if under 25 years old, >25 years old, need to pass Hazard Perception Test
Additional Fees if mag Driving School ka pa.
Passing the Hazard Perception Test $49
Passing the Driver's Test - $60
P1 Licence - 12 months ($61)
P2 Licence - 24 months ($96)
Full Licence - 10 years ($362)
For 491 Visa Holders, meron Q lang nakalagay sa likod ng card to indicate di pa permanent. Marker palang. Pero pagnaconvert na sa 191. Yun ang di ko naitanong.

Mahabang process yung pag obtain ng license lalo na kung magstart ka ulit sa Learners. Best to renew your PH license para conversion na lang ang kailangan mo gawin.
