How can I speed up my medical driving licence renewal?

I have been waiting since October 2021 for my driving licence to be reissued. Is there anything I can do to speed this process up as it could potentially affect my new job.

If you have tried contacting the DVLA without success, you could progress this to a formal complaint via the Gov.uk website.

Another option, if that doesn't work, is to contact your local MP.
