If my DUI case was not filed against me by court, why would I need an SR 22 form?

I have an out-of-state drivers license when I got a DUI 3 years ago. I followed up a year after and the court never filed it. Now that I need to renew my license but DMV won’t clear my record unless I submit a DL300 and SR22 form. However wouldn’t that increase my insurance or cause them to drop me from their coverage? I have no tickets, arrests, or any convictions since.
