If you received your 1st DWI in one state but you live in another, can the state you received the DWI in make you pay for and going to classes in that state?

Do you have to tell them were where about if you are traveling? In other words can you be placed on probation from a state that you don’t live? Can they make you come to their state for supervision? What happens if you are no a fixed income and can’t come?

Yes.  You rlicesnse may be revoked or suspended in your home state based on that state's administrative laws, if you receive a DWI elsewhere.  They will also have remedial measures to reinstate which may include a classs or reinsttement fee.
