I sent my license back to dvla at the start of June. It still hasn’t been processed has anyone else experienced the same? Having spoken to someone on we chat function they tell me it is taking longer but I’m concerned it’s now been 2 months

Don't forget to change the address the DVLA holds for any vehicles of which you are the Registered Keeper. Your licence may take a while to process. Only online work is being processed with any speed.0

From the start of lockdown to mid-June, they actively said "DO NOT SEND US ANY POST. Do it online."
