You may contact the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (DOT) to verify for sure about your particular situation but normally in WI you will need to get and maintain a SR22 for three years.
According to the Wisconsin DOT, for the SR-22 proof of insurance, it must be filed for three years from the reinstatement eligibility date, or for 3 years from the court entry date of a damage judgment that was effective before September 1, 2000.In addition to that, this states also noted that if at any time during the three-year filing period, an individual wishes to stop filing insurance, and discontinue driving in Wisconsin, they can avoid paying the reinstatement fee in the future by surrendering their driver license to the Wisconsin DOT while the insurance is still in force.
Proof of financial responsibility in Wisconsin is certifying that you have liability insurance in the amounts of at least $25,000 up to $50,000 for personal injury or death per accident and $10,000 for property damage per accident (25/50/10).

Thank you for asking William.
If you want to get information for the points listed on your driver license or driving history you should check with your state’s department of motor vehicle, or like agency, in your case its the Department of Transportation website. This permits you to send off for your driving history by filling out a form either in person at the DMV office or online. You can also call over the phone and ask information about the your points through a special phone number in WI DOT.
Your motor vehicle record (MVR) includes identifying information about you, lists any licenses that have been issued to you, any infractions you have for moving violation and the points put on your record for these offenses and administrative entries regarding your driving privileges, which will include things such as license suspensions or revocations.
Goodluck!
