Other requirements in the Code of Virginia are not listed in 20-70-30. It would be helpful if all of the requirements for processing FWABs, whether in the Code of Virginia or in the Administrative Code of Virginia, were listed in one place. The requirements from the Code that are not listed in 20-70-30 are as follows:

• 702.1(B)(ii): Voter must provide his/her printed name. If it is the determination of the State Board of Elections that the absence of the printed name is not a material omission (and such a determination would make sense, as long as we could determine the name of the voter), this should be stated clearly in the Administrative Code.
• 702.1(B)(iii): Voter must provide the county or city in which he or she is registered and offers to vote. This is explained as a nonmaterial omission later in 20-70-30---if it is left out and as long as the residence address provides information about the county/city---but the requirements of 702.1 should be listed in paragraph (C) so that the section serves as a comprehensive guide to FWAB processing. The nonmateriality of omissions can then be explained in paragraph (D) of 20-70-30.
• 702.1(B)(iv): Voter must provide the residence address at which he/she is, or desires to be, registered to vote.

Finally, is the full name of the FWAB registration/absentee applicant required for voter registration?
