SR-22 filing duration by US state — how long you must carry the certificate, quoted from the state DMV
Canonical, always-current version: https://referencesource.org/sr22-filing-duration-by-state/ Machine-readable: https://referencesource.org/sr22-filing-duration-by-state/data.json — this mirror is a point-in-time copy.
- Last verified: 2026-08-31

An SR-22 (or the higher-limit FR-44 some states substitute after a DUI) is a certificate an insurer files with the state proving a driver carries the mandated coverage, and states differ both in how long the filing must run — commonly two to five years — and in what restarts the clock, such as a lapse in coverage or a new conviction. Every existing comparison of this figure is an insurance agency's marketing page, none of which cite the state DMV statute or page a figure is drawn from, so a reader has no way to check a number against its source. Each record is one state, with the required filing duration, what starts the clock (conviction date, reinstatement date, or judgment date), which suspension the duration applies to, what happens if coverage lapses during that period, and the DMV page or statute it comes from, backed by a verbatim quote. A state whose own agency states more than one duration — Missouri sets two years after an accident judgment and three after a mandatory-insurance suspension — gets one record per duration rather than a single averaged answer. Answers 'how long do I need an SR-22' and 'when does my SR-22 requirement end'.
Provenance — what every record carries
Every record carries source (the URL the value was read from) and
source_quote (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you
cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one;
these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on
the canonical site at its url.
