What Happens After You Complete a Texas DWI Class?
TLDR:
After completing your DWI class, your certificate is sent to the court or DPS. This step is required to reinstate your license and complete probation.
Completing your DWI class is a major milestone, but it’s not the final step. After completion, your provider must submit proof to the appropriate authority — usually the court, probation office, or Texas DPS.
In cities like San Antonio, Dallas, and Houston, DPS reinstatement may also require:
-
Payment of reinstatement fees
-
SR-22 insurance filing
-
Completion of probation terms
At A Better Choice, we make sure your completion certificate is processed quickly so delays don’t cost you more time or money.
FAQs:
-
How long does reinstatement take? Usually 1–3 weeks after submission.
-
Can I drive immediately after class? Only after DPS reinstates your license.
