There are quite a number of services that are available through the Internet that says they can file your SR 22 insurance without the knowledge of your car insurance company in San Antonio. But bear in mind that this kind of SR 22 insurance policy does not include the actual car insurance coverage. All they have to do is to file the SR22 for you and to answer your question, this is not a safe thing to do.
Once the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) finds out that the company that files your SR22 certificate is not the same as the car insurance company that they have on file, you will be charged for additional fees. If that happens, the money that you can save for not informing your car insurance company about your need to file may not be enough to pay for the fines that will be imposed by the DMV.
My advice is that you just have to get in touch with your current car insurance company and tell them that you need to get SR 22 insurance. This will not take so much of your time and if they don’t offer SR 22 insurance or charge you an unbelievable price for it, you can always shop around and find a car insurance company that can offer the best price for you.
How To Get A San Antonio Texas SR22 Form?
Q: How can I file a San Antonio SR22 form?
A: There are three different ways of filing a San Antonio SR22 form, but all of them begin with you finding an appropriate SR22 insurance company to buy your policy from. Once you have a company, your company will file the SR22 the way that fits their policy.
First of all, some companies file through the mail. They will fill out the SR22 form, mail it to you so you can sign it, and then you mail it back to them so they can mail it to the DPS. This process can take as much as 30 days, although it could take even longer if you hold it up.
Another way also involves mailing, but once you receive the SR22 form and sign it, you no longer have to involve the company but can take it up to the DPS office and hand it in yourself.
By far the fastest way is when a company files the San Antonio SR22 form electronically. These companies use Texas DOT, and can have the SR22 certificate ready, filed, and processed within two days.
