I'm trying to get an NS license, I've had one in the UK for 5 years.
Finding all of the information online very confusing. Firstly, I am in Dartmouth, so what number do I call to book a theory test? The Access Nova Scotia office in Dartmouth only appears to deal with vehicle registry matters, so I can't find the right number to call.
Do I book an appointment for the theory test, or just show up? And how much is it?
Any info would be great!
Thanks.

As far as I remember, you don't have to book for the theory test, you go there, pay the fee and write the test right there... , for the driving test there seems to be a waiting time of 6 weeks according to their website>

Access Nova Scotia also does the driving test and theory exam, not just registration etc.

yep, just show up to the centre to take your written test.
AFAIK, the closest to you is at West End Mall or maybe Lower Sackville.
I would NOT recommend taking your practical test at the West End Mall as I did. It's tight, busy and much more technical than the course taken at Lower Sackville.
Good luck!
