Joliet SR-22 FAQs
What's the cost range for an SR-22 in Joliet?
For a single driver, first-offense DUI, state minimum limits: roughly $1,400–$2,100 a year. Non-owner SR-22: $350–$700 a year.
Do I have to renew the SR-22 every year?
Your auto policy renews annually and the SR-22 filing stays attached. The 3-year SR-22 obligation runs from the date of the qualifying conviction, regardless of policy renewals. As long as the policy stays active continuously, the filing is fine.
