What the DMV usually asks for after a DUI

  • An SR-22, usually kept for 3 years
  • Enrollment in a DUI program
  • An ignition interlock device (IID) for many restricted licenses
  • A reissue fee

Your DMV notice lists your exact requirements. The SR-22 and the IID are separate. If the DMV asks for both, you need both. See our California interlock guide.
