I am afraid your agent was right. Failure to comply with the filing of requirements for SR22 would result in a suspension of your driver’s license and driving privileges. Before that happens, you should take the necessary action to avoid that. You can get your SR22 form from a licensed insurer or your carrier, in your case.

You can file the SR22 form in the State Capital of Texas. You can file it yourself or let your attorney handle it for you. Your insurance company in turn would provide the SR22 form for you or you can let them move the filing.

Usually, you have three years to file it from the date of suspension. During a period of three years, you must maintain and carry your SR22 whenever you are driving as proof of clearance or responsibility. If it expires before the given period or cancelled for that matter, your insurance carrier must notify the ordering state as required by law.

If for instance your SR22 expires just before the given period of three years for some reason, you must renew it to maintain your driving privileges. Failure to do so would mean revoking your license until renewal of SR22 has been filed. It is important that you update your status to your State Licensing Authority and maintain your SR22 to avoid any hassles or problems in the future.

If your license is already suspended before you have a chance to file for SR22, you might want to address the problem first by paying the appropriate fees and fines, and then proceed with your filing.

Finding car insurance SR22 DUI in Dallas is not that hard. You just have to know the requirements and your state laws.
