My wife had had a DUI arrest here in Colorado and she needs to file an SR22 Form so she can get her license back, can we get an SR22 Form from any car insurance company?

Unfortunately no, not all car insurance companies are authorized to file an SR22 form in your, or in this case, in your wife’s behalf. Only authorized car insurance companies can facilitate this for your wife. Finding a suitable auto insurance company that can file SR22 forms is the very first thing you and your wife needs to do in order to get her driving privileges returned. Colorado’s DMV or Department of Motor Vehicles’ website should provide you a directory of authorized insurance carrier that can help file this form for you.

Once your wife is able to find one, and purchases enough auto insurance coverage, the insurance carrier will be the one to submit the SR22 form to your state DMV effectively notifying them that your wife is properly insured to be allowed to drive a vehicle again, and therefore facilitate the process to get her driver’s license back. This is also an effective way for the state to monitor and impose mandatory financial capability to those drivers who have shown risky driving habits, or have poor driving histories, foe everyone’s mutual protection.

Your wife also needs to maintain the coverage for to years and any gaps, lapses or cancellations in the SR22 insurance coverage will be reported by your carrier to the State DMV, who can penalize you severely. We encourage you to use the free insurance quote tool on this website to help you find a carrier that can file this form for you, as well as be able to compare timely quote offers from many companies in a fast and convenient manner.

I have an SR22 and I am wondering what exactly does an SR22 insurance cover in  New Hampshire?

The New Hampshire Department of Safety states that an SR22 is a form that shows proof of liability insurance and is filed by the insurance carrier licensed to sell insurance in the state of New Hampshire.

The SR22 insurance certificate shows that you are complying New Hampshire responsibility laws and is usually mandated by the state if you have had an accident without car insurance or due to any serious traffic infraction. This certificate is filed by your current car insurance company to the Department of Motor Vehicle and in case it has been canceled, the DMV will be notified.

The minimum liability limits for liability coverage in the state of New Hampshire is 25/50/25 and this means bodily injury liability limits of $25,000 per injured person up to $50,000 per accident and property damage liability limits of $25,000.

Where do I get the SR 22 form? I also need to know the process. Thank you.

The SR-22 form is something that the insurance provider has and will file once you have bought the insurance required of you by the state. Policyholders may be given this form to take to the license office in Illinois. In some case, it can be downloaded in websites or mailed. Some insurers offer instant SR-22s, while other insurance companies require it to be filed before mailing it to you.

If you are required to carry an SR-22, then you should contact your car insurance agent and advise them of the needed filing with our state. The form must be filed by an insurance carrier licensed through Illinois insurance regulatory body normally.

If you are unable to find an insurance company that can file the SR-22 form for you then check with your IL insurance regulator who should be able to advise you where to find an insurance carrier in your area that you can buy the required insurance from.
