03FAQs
Frequently asked questions
What should I have ready before I call?
Have your California DMV notice, driver details, vehicle information, and current policy details ready. These items help explain what filing information may be needed and what questions remain for the insurer or DMV.
Can someone explain my SR-22 notice?
Yes, the call can help explain the insurance and filing language in your notice. Keep the full notice available because the California DMV, court, or another agency named there may provide instructions that control your situation.
Can I start an SR-22 filing by phone?
You can discuss starting the SR-22 process by phone and learn what information an insurer may need. The insurer must issue the certificate, and the California DMV decides whether submitted proof satisfies its requirement.
Does California use an FR-44 instead of an SR-22?
California uses an SR-22 for this filing requirement, not an FR-44. The insurer handles the certificate, while the California DMV receives filings and determines whether the proof meets its records requirement.
How long do I need an SR-22 in California?
California requires the SR-22 filing for three years from the date you first file proof to end the suspension. Check your notice and California DMV information for instructions specific to your record.
Can you tell me whether my filing will be accepted?
No, acceptance cannot be decided during the call. The insurer determines whether it can provide the requested coverage and certificate, and the California DMV determines whether the filing meets its requirement.
Can you tell me what my insurance will cost?
The insurer sets the price after reviewing information such as driving history, vehicle use, garaging location, coverage choices, and policy details. A phone discussion can explain these factors but cannot determine the insurer's price.
Can I ask about uninsured motorist coverage?
Yes, you can ask how uninsured motorist coverage relates to your policy. Insurers must offer it in California, and you can waive it in writing; the insurer can explain the required documentation.
