Wisconsin to Georgia: SR22 Update
To keep it brief, I needed SR22 insurance to maintain a valid license in Wisconsin until 2027. After moving to Georgia, I obtained a driver’s license from the DMV without any restrictions, and they didn’t request my SR22 documentation from Wisconsin. How can I find out if I still need to maintain SR22 insurance in Georgia? I’ve only received my new plastic license from the DMV and haven’t gotten any other correspondence.
Wisconsin to GA SR 22
It’s great that you were able to obtain your driver’s license in Georgia! However, your SR-22 requirement may still be in effect, depending on Wisconsin’s regulations and how they handle license and insurance requirements.
To find out if you still need to maintain SR-22 insurance in Georgia, consider the following steps:
Contact the Wisconsin DMV: Reach out to the Wisconsin Department of Motor Vehicles to inquire about your SR-22 status and whether it remains active or if it’s been satisfied due to your move.
Check with the Georgia DMV: Contact the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) to see if there are any outstanding requirements related to your SR-22 from Wisconsin that they may not have informed you about when you received your new license.
Speak with Your Insurance Company: Your insurer can provide clarity on whether your SR-22 requirement is still applicable. They can also guide you on maintaining or canceling SR-22 coverage based on your current situation.
Monitor for Correspondence: Keep an eye out for any mail from the Wisconsin DMV or Georgia DDS regarding your driver’s license and insurance status.
It’s essential to resolve any outstanding SR-22 requirements, as failing to do so could lead to complications down the line, especially if you were to get pulled over or involved in an incident. Good luck!
