If this is your first time requesting an absentee ballot or if you have moved or changed your name:
Fill in the form at MyVote.Wi.Gov or send a request on paper or by email to your municipal clerk’s office. You must also provide a photocopy of your acceptable photo ID*

If you are an “indefinitely confined”** voter:
Fill in the form at MyVote.Wi.Gov or send a request on paper or by email or phone call to your municipal clerk’s office. Select “indefinitely confined voter” when prompted. You are not required to provide a copy of your photo ID.
**Indefinitely confined means you are elderly or have a disability or medical condition that might make it hard for you to vote in-person at a polling place.

*Providing your ID: On a computer or tablet, take a photo of your photo ID and save it to your computer. If applying online at MyVote.Wi.Gov, upload the photo file when prompted. If using a smart phone with MyVote.Wi.Gov, at the prompt “add file,” select “take a photo,” Use your phone’s camera to photograph your ID; when the photo appears on screen, select “use photo” and “continue.” If using a paper application, print a copy of the ID and enclose it with your application. If applying by email, attach a photo of the ID to your email.
