SR-22 Insurance Quotes

What is an SR-22?

Often referred to as “SR-22 Insurance”, an SR-22 is often required for drivers that have had their driver’s licenses suspended due to:

  • DUI / DWI convictions
  • Multiple traffic offenses
  • Driving without insurance
  • License plates being expired
  • A high number of points on a driving record

An SR-22 is a certificate of financial responsibility that is filed with the Illinois Secretary of State’s office.
The SR-22 certificate notifies the Illinois Secretary of State that you have a minimum of liability insurance and have met the State’s minimum insurance requirements. You may receive a notice of suspension from the Secretary of State's office stating that if you don't file for an SR-22 by a certain date, your driver's license will be suspended. Don't be alarmed. Drivers throughout Illinois have obtained their SR-22 coverage through United Auto Insurance from such cities including Chicago, Joliet, Waukegan, and Bolingbrook.
