     § 1324.  Application 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.
