Frequently asked questions
Who decides whether my license is reinstated?
Your state does. We organize the published process, show the sources we used, and prepare supported paperwork when available. You choose whether to use the free state path or a paid preparation option.
What is free?
The roadmap is free. It identifies the likely holds, source-backed steps, official links, and order of operations we can determine from your answers.
Can ReinstateLicense file for me?
In selected administrative filing paths, yes, after a human review confirms that the exact state workflow and submission channel allow us to act. We do not take payment for filing until that review is complete. Steps reserved for you, a court, insurer, course provider, IID vendor, or attorney stay with that required actor.
What do the paid options cost?
Roadmap Plus is $29, a prepared self-file packet is $59, Single Filing is $149, and Filing Concierge is $249. Filing services are offered only after case review and do not include government, court, insurer, course, IID, or other third-party fees.
