My driving licence was revoked, what should I do?

How do I get my driving licence back? The DVLA has all the information it needs but I am still waiting. I have been declared fit to drive by my doctor. I have been waiting now since last year. It’s causing me so much hassle as I can’t get anywhere or even apply for jobs.

Given the length of time you have been waiting I would suggest making a formal complaint to the DVLA. If that doesn't work you could also write to your local MP for help.
