Driver confirmation letter — Driver Abstract

Answer in brief

A driver confirmation letter is a separate document option described in Ontario's longer-term records and letters guidance. It should be identified by the particular information requested and the official instructions for that letter. It is not simply another label for the common three-year driver record or licence-history product.

Meaning in this reference

A driver confirmation letter is a separate document option described in Ontario's longer-term records and letters guidance. It should be identified by the particular information requested and the official instructions for that letter. It is not simply another label for the common three-year driver record or licence-history product.

Use the term in context

If a recipient uses the word letter, clarify the required document rather than silently substituting an abstract. An Ontario letter's availability also does not establish that every recipient or another jurisdiction will accept it. My Drivers Abstract's linked standard personal-record service is for an uncertified three-year record; it does not claim to supply every official letter.
