NJ USA license exchange in ontario

[Hem.georgian]

Hi All,

I have moved from NJ USA to Ontario province, today when i went to exchange my US license to canadian license - the Drivetest authorities were not able to find New Jersey listed as a state in their portal and did not issue Canadian license.
I have also read in other forums that to get a G license in canada - the NJ driver abstract does not work - as it does not have the original start date of the License.
If any of you have faced a similar problem and how did you overcome it - please let me know. thanks!!

I got my G license with my driver abstract. I don't know from NJ as I'm from California.
