 I agree with all the previous comments. It's time to come clean and tell her the truth. She's going to figure it out for herself if she ever sees your driver's license and I would think it would be better to tell her than to discover it for herself and go into shock.
Definitely, the sooner the better!! Good luck -- you can do it!!

 Heh you sound like my friend Julies boyfriend. Same age and everything. From what heppened with them he finally came clean to her and even though she got mad she got over it.
Just tell her the truth. :) be prepared for her to get mad though!

 Assuming you have a good, solid relationship with her (after all, it's lasted 6 years) then most likely she will laugh once she has recovered from the shock.
And, as GothPod pointed out, she might suggest you go back to school for some lessons in basic math.
Good luck.

 There's not a thousand way to do this, you have to tell her.
Tell her that the reason why you did it was because you had the foolish idea that she would look at you only for your age instead of whom you were. That you did it because you wanted to be with her. That you're sorry for doing something so foolish.
The more you wait, the bigger the problem is going to become.
Usually, I try to put myself in both skins, to see the story from both side and come up with conclusion. But I really don't know how I would react to such a situation.
Please give me an update on this.

You were very young when you lied to her, it's understandable. You've grown up a lot since. If you plan to stay with her forever then she will find out eventually. Especially seeing as you have some big birthdays coming up in a few short years, that I'm sure she would want to spend with you. Do you think that she would be able to handle hearing this from you?
At least you are being brave enough to ask for help now, rather than keeping it buried any longer.
Good Luck.
