After sending in your Voter Registration/Ballot Request form to your local election official in the United States, you may be notified by your election official as to whether your registration application has been processed. If you are not, you can check the status of your registration either online or by contacting your local election official.
- To check online, go to US Vote's “Am I Registered?” service to confirm your registration status.
- To contact your local election official, go to the Election Official Directory, choose your state and voting region, and click "submit." On the following page click on the tab labeled “Election Official Contact Details” for contact information.
Overseas absentee ballots begin going out to voters who requested them 45 days before the election. Many states have tools available for voters to check the status of their ballot. To see if your state does, you can check out our State Ballot Tracking Chart. If your state offers ballot tracking you'll see an X next to it, which we've hyperlinked to take you directly to your state's ballot tracking service.
A reminder: Overseas voters must submit a new Voter Registration/Ballot Request form to their election official every election year in which they would like to vote.
