1. What is an SR22 filing?

For most, an SR22 filing requirement is due to driving without insurance or a traffic infraction such as DWI, DUI and Tickets for Driving Without Financial Responsibility or no Insurance. Occasionally there may be other reasons it is required or otherwise desired such as a drug conviction or judgement against you. The SR22 Form requested by a licensing authority can be issued by an Insurer in your state.

Texas SR22 Insurance can be an Operators or Non Owners insurance policy, where the Insured has Requested Financial Responsibility filing for the state from the Insurance company. The SR22 insurance form is an endorsement to your auto liability insurance policy. This is usually the result of a Traffic Ticket for driving without the minimum financial responsibility or a DWI or a DUI citation, accidents or other traffic related incidents.
