Phone-based support · 24/7 phone line01The basics
What an SR-22 is
An SR-22 is a certificate an insurer files with Texas DPS to show that required liability coverage is in place. It is not a separate insurance policy. The policy still has its own terms, exclusions, coverage choices, and cancellation rules, while the certificate connects the insurance record with the filing requirement.
02How it works
How the filing works in three steps
Read the notice.
Check the notice for the required certificate, agency instructions, conviction or judgment date, and any separate steps before starting insurance questions.
Gather your details.
Have your driver information, vehicle details if available, current policy information, and the notice nearby so the insurance questions stay accurate.
Compare policy choices.
Ask about owner, non-owner, or other available policy forms, then compare the full term cost and filing details the insurer provides.
03Before you call
Four things worth knowing first
When Texas asks for an SR-22
Texas drivers may be asked for an SR-22 after an uninsured ticket, coverage lapse, suspension, or certain OWI or DUI related matters. A person without a car may still need to discuss a non-owner option. Your own notice, conviction or judgment record, and Texas DPS instructions decide whether a filing is required.
What drives the price
Insurers consider the driving record, reason for the filing, vehicle, garaging address, coverage limits, claims history, payment history, and other underwriting details. Compare the total term premium, down payment, installment charges, and filing fee in words. The insurer sets the price, and different insurers may assess the same record differently.
How long it may be required
The filing period is two years from the date of the conviction or judgment. Exceptions or additional requirements may apply, so check your notice and insurance record, and ask Texas DPS about the status shown in its records.
Why drivers call us
The help is a calm review of the filing question, policy type, information to gather, and questions to raise with an insurer. It cannot erase a ticket, decide a court case, reinstate a license, or control an insurer's underwriting or Texas DPS record.
04Policy types
Four filing situations to ask about
Owner policy
If you own or regularly use a vehicle in Irving, ask whether an owner policy can cover that vehicle and support the SR-22 filing.
Non-owner policy
If you do not own a car but may borrow one, ask about non-owner eligibility and how regular access to a vehicle affects underwriting.
Non-owner details →Household vehicle
If a household member owns the vehicle you drive, explain who owns it, where it is garaged, and who uses it most often.
Other vehicle use
Tell the insurer about motorcycles, commercial use, rideshare activity, or other vehicles because the policy form and eligibility may differ.

05Minimum coverage
Texas liability minimums
The minimums in the table are a legal floor for required liability coverage. They are not a promise that a serious crash will be fully paid, especially when injuries, property damage, or claims exceed those limits.
- Bodily injury, one person
- $30,000
- Bodily injury, two or more people
- $60,000
- Property damage
- $25,000

Irving roads, transit and paperwork
State Highway 183 Commute
Trips along State Highway 183 can connect Irving work areas with Euless and other parts of the region. Tell the insurer where the vehicle is garaged, how far it is driven, and whether another household driver regularly uses it.
State Highway 114 Access
State Highway 114 links Irving with business districts and airport area routes, so commuting details can matter during underwriting. A borrowed vehicle, changing work location, or regular travel should be described accurately rather than treated as occasional use.
George Bush Turnpike
Use of the President George Bush Turnpike may be part of a regional commute, but the road itself does not determine eligibility. The garaging address, vehicle ownership, driving pattern, and details on your notice are more useful for insurance questions.

09FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Do you have an office in Irving?
No. Service is by phone from Euless, with questions limited to insurance and filing matters. There is no local Irving office, but Irving drivers can discuss their notice, vehicle situation, and policy questions by phone.
Where does an Irving SR-22 get filed?
The insurer files the SR-22 with Texas DPS. The certificate connects the required insurance policy with the agency's record. Keep your notice available because it may contain separate instructions or requirements beyond the filing.
Can Irving drivers without a car get an SR-22?
They may be eligible for a non-owner policy, depending on the insurer and driving situation. Explain whether you borrow vehicles, have regular access to a household car, or own any vehicle before discussing the filing.
Does transit use in Irving affect non-owner eligibility?
Using transit in Irving does not by itself decide eligibility. The insurer will need to know whether you sometimes borrow a car, how regularly you drive, and whether you own or maintain a vehicle.
What if my car is garaged in Irving?
Give the insurer the Irving address where the vehicle is normally kept. Garaging location can affect underwriting, and the address should match the actual storage location rather than a mailing address used for convenience.
Can an Irving citation require an SR-22?
A citation may be connected to a filing requirement, but your notice and conviction or judgment record decide what is required. Review the court named on the citation and Texas DPS instructions for questions about the underlying matter.
Can I use an out-of-state policy for an Irving SR-22?
Ask the insurer whether its policy can satisfy the Texas filing requirement and be filed with Texas DPS. Do not assume an out-of-state policy will meet the requirement without checking the notice and agency instructions.
Is an SR-22 a separate policy?
No. An SR-22 is a certificate filed by an insurer with Texas DPS. The underlying policy provides the coverage, and its terms, exclusions, cancellation rules, and eligibility still apply.
How long does Texas require an SR-22?
The filing period is two years from the date of the conviction or judgment. Exceptions or additional requirements may apply, so check your notice and the record maintained by Texas DPS.
Can I get an SR-22 after a coverage lapse?
A coverage lapse can be one reason a person is asked about an SR-22, but the notice and Texas DPS record control. Explain the lapse accurately and ask the insurer which policy forms it will consider.
Will an SR-22 reinstate my license?
No. An SR-22 may be one requirement among several, but it does not itself reinstate a license or operating privilege. Follow the notice and confirm the privilege is valid before driving.
Does Texas use an FR-44 instead?
No. Texas uses the SR-22 certificate for this type of filing. The insurer still decides whether it can issue the underlying policy and submit the certificate based on its underwriting rules.
