I was banned in 2016 as a HRO. I got a one year licence in October 2020 which I continued to drive on after October 2021 Under s88. I did not drink and had not since May 2019.
In April this year I relapsed with my alcohol problem and went into detox/recovery for a month to try to properly address my drinking. I have not drunk, or driven since. In August got a letter from DVLA saying that they had been informed of my detox and I was considered alcohol dependent and could not reapply for my licence again for a year.
My question is, when does this year start ? The day in April that I went into detox or August when DVLA got around to writing to me?
