Your license can be suspended 2 ways from a DWI arrest: 1) Administrative License Revocation (ALR)- If you are arrested for DWI and refuse a breath or blood test, your license can be suspended 6 months; if you voluntarily provide a sample, it can be suspended for 90 days. You can request a hearing on the license revocation within 15 days of arrest or it is waived. If no hearing is requested, the suspension starts 45 days after arrest. If you request a hearing, your license may not get suspended - you would need a lawyer for this.   2) DWI conviction- 1st offense DWI conviction your license can be suspended from 90 days to 1-year.   If your license is suspended, you can obtain a license to drive during the suspension (occupational drivers license).
