The 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 needs to match how you drive, including whether you own a vehicle or borrow one.
01How it works
How the filing works in three steps
Read the notice
Find the exact requirement, effective dates, and agency instructions on your notice before discussing an SR-22 policy.
Gather your records
Have your driver's license information, vehicle details, current policy information, and notice available so the insurance questions stay focused.
Compare the filing
Ask how the insurer handles the SR-22, what policy type fits, and which records must be confirmed before driving.
02Before you call
The questions behind every filing
When Texas asks for an SR-22
Texas drivers may be asked for an SR-22 after a suspension, DUI or OWI-related matter, uninsured driving ticket, coverage lapse, or another event listed in a state or court notice. Your own notice decides whether a filing is required, what must be filed, and where questions should go.
What it costs
Insurers set the price after reviewing driving history, the reason for the filing, vehicle and garaging details, coverage limits, and policy type. Compare the total term premium, down payment, installment charges, and filing fee in words. A non-owner policy and an owner policy may be rated differently.
How long the filing lasts
The filing period is two years from the date of the conviction or judgment. Exceptions or additional requirements may apply, so check the notice and confirm the record with Texas DPS or the agency identified there.
What the call covers
The help is a phone conversation about insurance choices, filing details, and the records an insurer may request. It is non-judgmental and practical, but it cannot erase a ticket, decide a court case, or reinstate a license.
03Policy types
Policy types to ask about
Owner policy
Ask about this option if you own or regularly keep a vehicle in Ingram and need coverage tied to that vehicle and its registration.
Non-owner policy
Ask about non-owner coverage if you do not own a car but may borrow vehicles, subject to the insurer's eligibility rules and exclusions.
Non-owner details →Borrowed vehicle
Explain whose vehicle you drive, how often you use it, and where it is kept, since regular access can affect the policy choice.
Other vehicle use
Mention motorcycles, commercial use, household drivers, or more than one vehicle so the insurer can assess the correct policy structure.

- $30,000
- Bodily injury, two or more people
- $60,000

05Local context
Local context for drivers in Ingram
Texas State Highway 27
Driving between Ingram and Kerrville on Texas State Highway 27 can make vehicle access central to work and errands. Tell the insurer where the vehicle is garaged in Ingram and who uses it regularly, rather than assuming a mailing address tells the whole story.
Ranch Road 783
Regular trips along Ranch Road 783 may involve a household vehicle, a borrowed car, or changing drivers. Explain the actual use and garaging location so the insurer can consider the right owner or non-owner policy.
Kerr County paperwork
Keep the citation or suspension notice with your insurance records and follow the court or agency named on that document. A local driving routine does not replace the filing instructions, and the notice controls what must be confirmed.

08FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Do you have an office in Ingram?
No. Service is by phone from Kerrville, and there is no local office in Ingram. The phone conversation covers insurance and filing questions, while the insurer and Texas DPS handle their respective decisions and records.
Can Ingram drivers get SR-22 help by phone?
Yes. Ingram drivers can discuss the SR-22 requirement, policy type, documents, and filing questions by phone from Kerrville. The insurer decides whether to offer coverage and how the filing is handled.
Where is my Ingram car considered garaged?
The garaging location is generally where the vehicle is kept most of the time, but the insurer makes the rating determination. Give the actual Ingram address and explain commuting, household use, and any regular storage elsewhere.
Can I use a non-owner policy in Ingram?
A non-owner policy may fit an Ingram driver who does not own a vehicle but borrows cars, subject to the insurer's eligibility rules. Explain whose vehicles you use and how often before choosing this policy type.
Does transit in Ingram affect non-owner coverage?
Ingram households often depend on cars because local travel options are limited. If you borrow a vehicle for work or errands, describe that use to the insurer. Transit habits alone do not determine eligibility or coverage.
Which local court is on my Ingram citation?
The citation or notice identifies the court or agency handling the matter. Read that document carefully and direct court questions to the court named there. Insurance filing help cannot decide a court case or change its instructions.
Can I get an SR-22 if I have no car in Ingram?
Possibly. Ask about a non-owner policy if you do not own a car but may drive borrowed vehicles. The insurer will decide eligibility, exclusions, and whether the policy supports the required SR-22 filing.
How long does an SR-22 last in Texas?
The filing period is two years from the date of the conviction or judgment. Exceptions may apply, so check your notice and confirm the record with Texas DPS or the agency identified in your paperwork.
Is an SR-22 a separate insurance policy?
No. An SR-22 is a certificate filed by an insurer with Texas DPS. It is connected to an underlying insurance policy, and the policy type depends on vehicle ownership and how the vehicle is used.
What should I bring to an SR-22 call?
Have your notice, driver's license information, vehicle details, registration information, and current or recent policy records ready. These details help keep the discussion focused, but the insurer may request additional information.
Does Texas use an FR-44 filing?
No. Texas does not use an FR-44 filing. The state certificate identified here is the SR-22, and your own notice remains the source for the requirement that applies to your matter.
Does an SR-22 automatically reinstate my license?
No. An SR-22 may be one requirement among several and does not itself reinstate a license. Confirm that your operating privilege is valid and review the remaining requirements with Texas DPS or the agency named on your notice.
