The purpose of an SR22 car insurance filing is to monitor and ensure that a driver maintains auto insurance coverage for a period of up to three years. Then it is up to you to make sure you never have Car Insurance Cancelled for Non Payment.

An SR22 is a proof of insurance certificate that is filed by an insurance company with the Department of Motor Vehicles upon insured request. SR22 filings are usually filed for up to three consecutive years.

If the insured does not pay the premiums required to keep their auto insurance policy active, the insurance company will cancel the insurance policy and in turn, will cancel the SR22 filing with the DMV.
