Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need insurance if my license is suspended?

Most states require continuous liability insurance or SR-22 filing even during suspension to avoid extending the suspension period. Letting coverage lapse can restart your SR-22 clock or add reinstatement fees. Check your state's DMV reinstatement letter for specific requirements.

What is SR-22 and who needs it?

SR-22 is a certificate your insurer files with the state proving you carry liability coverage. Required after DUI, reckless driving, driving uninsured, or accumulating excessive points. Filing typically lasts 3 years from the violation date.

How long does SR-22 filing take?

Electronic SR-22 filing reaches the state within 1–3 business days. Paper filings take 7–10 days. Your insurer submits the certificate directly; you receive a copy for your records but do not file it yourself.
