New regulations for overseas voting are in effect as of 2010.  To be sure you receive your ballot, the Department of State urges overseas voters to send in a new registration/ballot request form every election year, and whenever you change your name, address, or email address.  

For voting registration and absentee ballot requests, you may refer to the State Department webpage on Overseas Voting, or the information provided by the Federal Voting Assistance Program.
