(i) you have moved your residence from one precinct to another in the same jurisdiction and the same congressional district;
(ii) you have failed to respond to the confirmation of address notice mailed to you by the Department of Elections or your local registration office (as provided in § 24.2-428 of the Code of Virginia);
(iii) your registration has not been transferred or cancelled; and
(iv) you have affirmed orally or in writing your new address before an officer of election at the polling place.

Moving outside of the Commonwealth of Virginia

Persons moving from the state within 30 days of a presidential election are entitled to vote in the precinct in which they were previously registered (immediately prior to moving) for presidential electors only. You must mark your absentee ballot application with the words: “APPLY FOR PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION ONLY” and indicate the date you moved from the precinct. If returning to your old precinct to vote in person, you must tell the election official, before voting, that you have moved out of state within the 30 days prior to the election. Whether voting by absentee ballot or in person, you will only be given the ballot for presidential and vice-presidential electors.

Military & Overseas Voter Registration

Virginia leaves a space for active-duty military members (and their dependents) and other overseas citizens to register to vote using the same options listed above.

However, the state notes you can also register to vote and request absentee ballots by completing a Voter Registration and Absentee Ballot Request Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) (Form 76) and submitting it to your local voter registration office. This form will allow you to register to vote and apply for an absentee ballot.

Absentee Registration & Voting

If you're out of state or not currently in your county/precinct when it's time to register to vote, you still can register to vote using the methods described under Register to Vote in Virginia above or you can request an absentee ballot online.

If you're still out of state or not currently in your county/precinct when it's time to vote, you can apply for an absentee ballot.

The state provides the Virginia Absentee Ballot Application Form (Form SBE-701) which acts not only as a ballot application, but also:

• Acts as a guide on how to vote absentee.
  • This includes the absentee ballot request deadlines.
• Lists citizens who are qualified to vote absentee.
  • Examples include college students, residents dealing with illness or disease, and citizens who are currently incarcerated but still awaiting trial.
• Explains authorized ways you can deliver your completed absentee ballot.

NOTE: While Virginia allows overseas citizens (including military members and their dependents) to use this form to apply for absentee ballots, it still encourages these citizens to use the methods described in Military & Overseas Voter Registration above.

Deadlines for Registration

If you plan to vote in an upcoming election, be sure that you register by the deadline. Virginia voter registration deadlines are as follows:

• General elections: 22 days prior to Election Day.

You can use the Driver's License and Identification Card Application (Form DL 1P) or the driver's license/ID card notification form to make these changes at any DMV office. You can also update your information by:

• Sending a letter detailing the changes to your local registrar.
• Completing and mailing the form on the back of your current voter card.
