§ § 1324Application by mail

(a) General rule.--An application to register to vote or
to change party enrollment or name or address on a current
registration may be submitted by voter registration mail
application in the manner set forth in this section. An
application may be submitted by mail or by representative to
the commission on an official mail registration application,
the form of which shall be determined and prescribed by the
secretary or the Federal Election Commission pursuant to the
National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (Public Law 103-31, 42
U.S.C. § 1973gg et seq.). The applicant must complete the
information required on the registration application and sign
the registration declaration.
   (b) Time.--Registration under this section may be made at
any time. If a registration application is received by a
commission beyond the deadline for registration provided in
section 1326 (relating to time), the application shall be
retained by the commission until the beginning of the next
period during which registration can be made.
   (c) Military electors.--
       (1) A military elector may apply at any time for
   registration on an official registration application or any
   form prescribed by the Federal Government for such purpose.
       (2) The status of a military elector to register under
   this section with respect to residence shall remain as the
   same home residence status from which the military elector
   is qualified to register. If, at the time of leaving that
   home address, the military elector had not resided in this
   Commonwealth or in a particular election district for a
   sufficient time to have been entitled to be registered but,
   by continued residence, would have become entitled to be
   registered, the military elector shall be entitled to be
   registered at the time the military elector would have been
   entitled to register had the military elector not left that
   home address but continued to reside there.
       (3) The commission is authorized to consider a request
   for an absentee ballot as a request for an official
   registration application and to forward to the requester all
   of the following:
           (i) An absentee ballot and balloting material.
           (ii) An official registration application.
       (4) The military elector must complete and file these
   documents in accordance with the applicable provisions of
   the act of June 3, 1937 (P.L.1333, No.320), known as the
   Pennsylvania Election Code.
       (5) The right to be registered pursuant to this
   subsection shall not be subject to challenge for any reason
   other than failure to have furnished the commission a
   properly completed registration application.
