What happens if I fail or run out of time on Michigan BDIC?

Missing the 60‑day window (or failing to pass) means points and insurer visibility may apply. The state doesn’t grant extensions.

What happens if I fail or run out of time on Michigan BDIC?

Short answer: If you miss the 60‑day deadline to enroll and pass, points and the violation can be added to your record and made available to your insurance company. Per state law, no extensions are available. You can enroll multiple times within the 60 days but can only pass once under the program.
