The time requirement depends upon state laws. Your state will send a letter to the address on your driver's license. The letter will include the length of time that you are required to maintain your SR-22 endorsement. If you have failed to update your address on your driver's license, you will need to call the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or the Secretary of State or your state's department of insurance to inquire about the time requirement, which largely depends upon the reason for the endorsement. However, the endorsement is usually required for two to three years after the date of conviction for a traffic violation.

If you cancelled your sr22 insurance but the state didnt revoke your license do you really need the sr22?
If the state has required you to file an SR22, then you do still need it. You should contact your State of licensure to determine if an SR22 filing is still required. Just because the state did not revoke your license does not mean that you do not need one. Generally if you filed your SR22 within 30 days of the state ordering you to do so, then your license will not be suspended because you filed your SR22 timely, this does not mean that they will not suspend your license later if you have failed to maintain a required SR22 filing. The required filing period is for 2 to 3 years depending on your state law and what a court may have ordered.
