Simply stated, an SR-22 is a document that shows proof of financial responsibility. You'll need an SR-22 if the police caught you driving without insurance, and you'll be required to carry the SR-22 for a specified amount of time (usually three years). Once you properly fulfill that time period, your SR-22 status expires.
SR-22s also are associated with the following:
DUI or DWI or any serious moving violation
At-fault accidents while driving without insurance
Repeat traffic offenses or getting too many tickets in a short time period
License suspension or revoked license
How long do I carry one?
Expect a long relationship with your SR-22 — most likely three years — similar to a probationary period after a criminal offense. You must carry continuous insurance during the specified period of time before SR-22 status is removed. If your policy lapses or is canceled, your auto insurance company is required to notify the state immediately and your license will be suspended again.

It depends on the state. In Alaska, for example, you must carry this kind of insurance policy for three years from the ending day of any revocation except revocations for DWI and Refusal convictions. For DWI and Refusal convictions SR-22 is required for five (5) years from the ending date on a first offense, 10 years from the ending date on a second offense, 20 years from the ending date on a third offense, and for life on a fourth offense.
Under the laws of most states, you must carry SR-22 insurance for a certain period (often three years) after the end of your suspension or revocation.

2 years on maximum SR-22, the coverage keeps tickets on report for factors for 4 years blocks. 2d offense DWI is ninety day suspension DL, time in county, $one hundred twenty five to reinstate the DL. third offense is 4 years state time. 5th offense is 25 years state time. you may permit your DL expire for as much as two years devoid of having to retake the driving try for a renewal.
