Re:请教:入澳洲籍之后回中国利弊
s it compulsory to be on the electoral roll if I am overseas?<br>
<br>
Enrolment and voting by people outside Australia is not compulsory. However, if you are enrolled and you do not vote, or apply for a postal vote at a federal election, your electoral enrolment may be cancelled. Whether you are going overseas for either a short or long period of time you should let the AEC know that you will be away from your enrolled address. If you don’t you run the risk of having your name removed from the roll.<br>

I am going overseas for up to a year, what should I do?<br>
<br>
If you are going overseas for a short period of time and you will be returning to your address in Australia, you should let the AEC know by completing and submitting an Overseas Notification form [PDF 24k].<br>

I am going overseas for a year or more, what should I do?<br>
<br>
If you are going overseas permanently or indefinitely you must complete and submit an Overseas Notification form [PDF 24k]. This will remove you from the roll.<br>
<br>
If you are going overseas for more than one year and less than six you can choose to remain on the roll by registering as an overseas elector [PDF 133k] or you can ask to be removed from the roll in your absence by completing an Overseas Notification form [PDF 24k].<br>

I have lived overseas for many years. Can I re enrol to vote in Australian elections?<br>
<br>
If you are not currently enrolled and have been overseas for more than three years, you are not eligible to enrol from outside Australia.<br>
<br>
If you have been living overseas for less than three years and intend to return within six, you may be able to enrol from outside Australia and register as an overseas elector. Further information can be found in Overseas Electors - Eligibility and Forms.<br>

Can I vote whilst overseas?<br>
<br>
Only if you are listed on the current electoral roll are you are eligible to vote from overseas. To check whether you are enrolled please use our Online Enrolment Verification Facility. You do not have to register as an overseas elector to vote, however you should register if you are going overseas for between 12 months and 6 six years to ensure that your name remains on the roll in your absence. Information on voting options for overseas electors is available once an election has been announced. |
