Filing the SR-22 Insurance Form

Updated on Thu, 4/28/2011

Some states require a problem driver's auto insurance company to file the SR-22 form as a proof of the driver's financial responsibility, stating that his/her auto insurance liability is in effect. However, the state of New York does not require SR-22 filing.

FOR OUT OF STATE RESIDENTS

Although SR-22 is not required in the state of New York, if you are required to file an SR-22 in another state, you should continue to do so if you want to retain your driving privileges. Keep in mind that suspension of your driving privileges in another state may also result in the suspension of your driving privileges in New York.

I thought going online was supposed to make things easier. All I wanted was information on how to "un-suspend" my license. I don't have a dwi or anything, I just owe money on old tickets. I'm just not sure how much and/or if it's too late...will I need to start all over again, after driving for 25yrs.?
