S197 Mustang SVA, IVA, Importation & Light Conversion Information

As with most things done by the government, the new IVA test (that replaced the SVA test) needs a different form. The old SVA form won’t do. Logic would suggest that knowing for many months that the IVA would replace the SVA test, VOSA web designers would be right on the case with the forms available everywhere for download.

Umm, well no dear reader. No doubt they will be in the coming months, but at the time of writing they are not. I asked the guy I spoke to at VOSA where to find them, and off he went to find out. It turns out that they are currently hiding on the www.transportoffice.gov.uk website in the forms section. Well where else? The Direct.gov website would be too easy right?

Lets’ make it easy for you; they are right here on our servers and you can get them now.

The application form is a MS Word document and you can get it here:

The guidance notes are a PDF document and you can get those here:

The fees form is also a PDF document and you can get that here:

How easy was that? Too easy for the government it seems.
