The SR22 or SR22 Filing – What is it?

An SR-22 Filing is required to lift the suspension on your drivers license following a DUI, DWI, OUI, or OVWI conviction. An SR-22 Filing is a form issued by an insurance company, which removes a suspension order placed by the DMV on your driving privilege. The filing provides a guarantee to the Department of Motor Vehicles that an insurance company has issued at least minimum liability coverage for the person making that filing; AND – that the insurance company will notify the DMV should the insurance ever lapse for any reason.
