(a) This section applies to an application that is incomplete under section 1.5(b)
of this chapter.
(b) If the application contains all the information required to be supplied by the voter, but
does not include:
(1) information required to be supplied by an individual who received the completed
application from the voter; or
(2) the signature of that individual;
the county voter registration office shall promptly make one (1) effort to contact the
individual who received the completed application from the voter, if possible, and one (1)
effort to contact the voter to obtain the missing information or the signature in the case of the
individual who received the completed application from the voter. For purposes of this
subsection, "effort" refers to the activities described in section 2(b) of this chapter.
(c) The county voter registration office shall process the application under this article if
the county voter registration office:

(2) cannot obtain the information or signature of the individual who had custody of the
application and the application is otherwise complete.
(d) In determining the eligibility of the applicant, the county voter registration office may

described in section 1.5(b) of this chapter. However, the county voter registration office shall,
not later than three (3) days after receipt of the application, provide notice of the failure to
properly complete the application to the county election board for appropriate action under
