Frequently Asked Question
When can I actually download my official Texas certificate?
You don’t have to wait—your certificate is ready as soon as you finish the last lesson and can be found right in your account dashboard.
Do I really need to sign the paper before I send it to the court?
Yes, you do. Texas courts are strict about this, so make sure to sign the “Court Copy” by hand so they can officially accept it.
Is it okay to just email the certificate to my insurance company?
Most agents are perfectly fine with that. Just download the PDF and send it over to start your 10% discount.
What should I do if my court deadline is almost here?
Don’t wait. Get your signed certificate to the court immediately, as missing your date could mean the ticket stays on your record permanently.
Which specific copy am I supposed to give to the judge?
Look for the one clearly marked “Court Copy.” That’s the only version the judge will use to dismiss your ticket.
Will I be charged an extra fee to get my certificate once I'm done?
Not at all. Your official certificate is already covered by your course fee and is ready for you to print at no extra cost.
How can I tell if the court actually dropped my ticket?
It usually takes about 10 days for the court to process everything. You can check their website or give them a quick call to confirm your record is clear.
