CAA requires you to hold fit and proper status at the time of your Licence issue and to continuously comply with this status. Students must provide an up-to-date Criminal Conviction Report showing a conviction-free period of at least three years prior to the date on which training will commence and no more than one conviction for drunk driving. Students must also provide an up-to-date Demerit Points and Suspension History Report (Traffic Offence History) showing a maximum of 75 demerit points within the three years immediately prior to the date on which training will commence.
