Early return of D/L on DR10

[Sukh]

Hi, I would be most grateful, if you would kindly advise me on the process of the early return of a driving licence. I am currently on a driving ban for 42 months for 2 separate incidents running concurrently. My question, is based on the two different dates of conviction below, when would be the soonest I could apply? The details and my reasoning are below;

I believe I may be able to get my licence back at the end of this if year the court will go with my initial conviction date of 17th Dec 20 (Wimbledon). Or if 2nd conviction date 24th May 21.

I believe have good reasons and the strongest points, which meet the main criteria and can be proven an for early return;

• Providing care and assistance for my 75 year old mother, as its only the two of us living at home and i need to be driving her to appointments, household shopping etc. I have applied for careers allowance if accepted that will no doubt strengthen my case.
• Sharing the workload with my ex wife with my children (ages 12 & 10), school runs, outside sports & social activities etc.
• Verified part-time driving work within a food environment with flexible working hours.
• A good report in in my favor from probation (no breeches).
• Stayed within the law (no repeat or any other offence committed).
• Glowing report from ARCH government alcohol rehabilitation. Completely satisfied with my commitments, dedication and personal improvements.
• My previous voluntary admission into private alcohol rehabilitation on 2 occasions at a personal cost of approximately 25k.

Good afternoon,

I believe that you would not be able to apply for this until 29th June 2023. You could not apply until the 2nd disqualification is eligible and it would run from date that the disqualification began.

I hope that helps.

Kind regards
Martin.
