Do i need to have my Nova Scotia Drivers licence before i can register the car i just bought?

We registered ours without one, though that was over a year ago and that may have since changed. I am sure there was a thread about this very thing a while ago...I can't remember for the life of me who started it though...lol

Hope your settling in okay?

no.

but they will need some sort of id, proof of insurance and the title.
rather like getting the tax disc renewed in the uk actually.

agree with wbexpat. I think passport/ bank card/ SIN card suffices as ID?

R

i brought the rolls royce of ids - the passport complete with WP.

actually im glad rach brought that up, i seem to recall you needing to have some kind of permanent status to qualify. or maybe i dreamed it. better safe than sorry.

I registered my car while on a visitor visa (under hubby's work permit), passport and bank card. No SIN, no PR.

i must have imagined it. perhaps they were talking about it on the radio or something.
i do recall them having a shufty at my WP though. perhaps it was simple curiosity.

is this the thread you were thinking of???

Oooh it was! You are a mind reader...what am I thinking about now?...

oooh, that's nasty

lol I wasn't being mean! I was merely impressed as I couldn't for the life of me find that thread and didn't give any information on who wrote it...and you still found it!

and I meant it was nasty what your were thinking lol

LOl DOH! It was early....and I had only had a green tea, not coffee
