Do you mean your licence or your Class Rating?

Do you know the difference?

Licence is valid for 5 years, it does not matter if you have flown or not for it to still be valid. Just because you have a valid licence does not mean you can fly a single engine a/c solo, for this you need a current SEP rating which I suspect is what you really mean when you say your licence has expired (though do check your licence expiry date), not having flown for so long you need to do the skills test as Backpackers post says, you will also of course need a current medical.

What they are struggling to explain to you is that it seems like you need to revaldate the RATING in your licence. Ratings are renewed by flight test, licences are renewed by fee and the presence of a valid medical.

Select a school/examiner and they will explain all this to you.
