SR-22 requirement

An SR-22 is a certificate an insurer files with the state to confirm that a driver carries the liability coverage the state requires. Some states use an FR-44 or a different form for alcohol-related offenses; where Oregon does, the sources below say so.

SR-22. The Oregon DMV SR-22 Information page lists a DUII conviction among the events for which Oregon law requires an SR-22 filing. ORS 806.075(2) requires a person convicted of DUII to maintain future responsibility filings for three years from the date the first filing is required, at the higher coverage limits in ORS 806.075(1) ($50,000/$100,000/$10,000). DMV Form 735-6826 states the SR-22 must be on file 'for three years after the initial filing requirement.'

Frequently asked questions

Is an ignition interlock required after a first DUII conviction in Oregon?
Yes. Under ORS 813.602(1), when a person is convicted of DUII under ORS 813.010 or a municipal ordinance, the Department of Transportation shall require an approved ignition interlock device in any vehicle the person operates, both before the person is eligible for a hardship permit and, for a first conviction, for one year after the ending date of the suspension or revocation caused by the conviction.
How long does a repeat DUII offender need an ignition interlock in Oregon?
ORS 813.602(1)(c) requires the device for two years after the ending date of the suspension or revocation for a second or subsequent conviction. Under ORS 813.602(2), a DUII conviction combined with certain homicide or assault convictions in the same episode, or aggravated vehicular homicide, carries a five-year requirement after the longest-running suspension or revocation ends.
How does the Oregon interlock requirement end?
Under ORS 813.635(1), the requirement continues until the person submits to DMV a certificate from the manufacturer's representative stating the device recorded no negative report for the last 90 consecutive days of the required period. If there is a negative report in that window, § 813.635(2) extends the requirement until a 90-consecutive-day clean certificate is submitted. Oregon DMV describes this as the 90-day No Negative Report.
Is an SR-22 required after a DUII in Oregon, and for how long?
Yes. The Oregon DMV SR-22 Information page lists conviction for driving under the influence of intoxicants among the reasons Oregon law requires an SR-22 filing. ORS 806.075(2) requires a person convicted of DUII to maintain future responsibility filings for a period of three years from the date the first filing is required, at the coverage amounts in ORS 806.075(1).
What does Oregon DMV charge to reinstate after a DUII suspension?
The Oregon DMV hardship permit page lists a reinstatement fee of $85 and a non-refundable hardship permit application fee of $75. DMV Form 735-6826 lists the reinstatement fee, an SR-22 on file for three years, an approved IID for one year (first conviction) or two years (second or subsequent), and a DUII treatment completion certificate as base-license reinstatement requirements.
