DMVsr22

Q: For how long do I have to file DMVsr22 insurance?

A: In the state of Texas, you have to file DMVsr22 for a period of two years. However, when that two year period actually begins depends on when and how your driver’s license was suspended. Although in most states, the SR22 period begins once your license is able to be reinstated, in Texas it is not so. Instead, your SR22 period begins, for example, if you were in an accident, from the date of the crash. Or, if you were convicted of drunk driving, then from the date of the conviction. In Texas, the DMVsr22 filing period is also much shorter than in other states, which average three years.

Now, just because you’re done with the DMVsr22 after two years doesn’t mean it’s done with you. Whatever you did to get it, and that license suspension, will be on your driving record for at least five years, and your car insurance company will see it whenever they check, which means your car insurance rates will be based on it. It won’t be as costly as when you had to file SR22, but neither will it be cheap.
