About ICBC

ICBC's ASL interpretation pilot

We're introducing a pilot project that offers free American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation services at five ICBC driver licensing offices.

The two-month pilot is in partnership with Convo Communications, a Deaf-owned company. Their Convo Access service offers on-demand ASL interpretation.

Locations offering ASL interpretation

Starting January 5, 2026, Deaf and Hard of Hearing customers can quickly access ASL interpretation from Convo Access at the following driver licensing offices:

  • Burnaby, 232-4820 Kingsway (Metrotown)

  • Kamloops, 937 Concordia Way

  • Kelowna, 1720 Springfield Road

  • Surrey, 10470 152 Street (Guildford)

  • Victoria, 1-1150 McKenzie Avenue

How to use Convo Access

When you visit one of the above locations, you'll see Convo Access signage in the waiting area and at the front counter.

Scan the QR code with your smartphone camera and open the link to connect with an ASL interpreter on a secure video call. No apps, installation or additional setup are required.

Convo Access is offered for free and no advance booking is required. It can be used for common driver licensing services, such as:

  • Renewing or replacing a driver's licence or piece of ID

  • Changing your address

  • Getting a copy of your driving record

When to use an in-person interpreter instead

We recommend using an in-person interpreter if you're taking a knowledge test or dealing with a claim, legal matter or other potentially complex situations.

Interpreters are not permitted in the car during road tests.

We want your feedback
