Research Methodology
Exactly how SR22 Helper produces its guides. Last updated October 2026.
Where the facts come from
State guides are verified against official state sources — DMV, Department of Insurance, or Secretary of State pages. General SR-22 facts come from published insurance publishers and carrier filings. We never invent a fee, duration, or requirement.
How we handle disagreements between sources
When sources disagree, we publish the range and say which sources sit where, instead of picking the tidiest number.
Inline citations
Factual claims carry an inline citation link to the exact source page — not just a list at the bottom. If a claim can't be cited, it doesn't get published.
Updates
Guides carry an "Updated" stamp and are re-checked as new official data is published. Insurance rules change — a stale requirement presented as current would be misleading.
