Hello,

Thank you for sharing your situation and question with us.

It is important to look into this type of information before returning to Ontario.

You can find some information in our our Settlement.Org Is the International Driver's Permit (IDP) valid in Canada? article.

The Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO) is the government department that controls driver's licences and vehicle registration in Ontario. Call the MTO if you have questions:

In Ontario: 1-800-387-3445
In Toronto: 416-235-2999
TTY: 1-866-471-8929

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
