How to Cancel an SR-22

You can remove an SR-22 once your required period has ended. If you cancel even one day early, the state may suspend your license again.

  1. Confirm the end date with the DMV, not just with your insurer.
  2. Ask your insurer to remove the SR-22 endorsement. Keep the policy if you still drive.
  3. Get written confirmation and keep it with your records.
  4. Requote your insurance. Rates often drop once the SR-22 is removed.

Canceling because you bought a car

That is not really a cancellation. It is a switch. The new owner's policy must have its own SR-22 filed before the non-owner policy ends.
