Did you already do your written test? For your G1? If so you can do your G1 exit test after 8 mths but you don't have to do it right away especially if you are not ready.
Your G1 will have an expiry you need to get your g2 before that date. (It may be 2 years I cannot find an exact time frame bit I know I did not pass the driving test my first time so it is a fair amount of time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Under graduated licensing, novice drivers (Class G1, G2, M1 and M2) progress through a two-step licensing process by completing the mandatory time periods for each level and passing the required road tests. Except for Class M1,
******************
novice drivers have five years to complete the graduated-licensing process.
*****************
However, if your Class G1, G2 or M2 licence is about to expire and you have not completed the process, you can regain or retain the same class of licence by passing a test and paying the five-year licensing fee. This is called “requalification.”
*********
A notice is sent to Class G1, G2 and M2 drivers before their licence expiry date to inform them of their options.
*********
If you do not complete the graduated-licensing process or requalify before your G1, G2 or M2 licence expires, you will not have a licence to drive, and you must reapply for a Level One licence.
