When to Re-Register
You do not need to re-register unless you:
- Move to a different county
- Change your name
Change of Address
If you have moved from one address in Champaign County to another address within the county you need to notify the County Clerk's Office of your new address. There are several ways to do this.
- Fill out the change of address on the back of your voter registration card and mail that in (be sure to include your signature).
- Come into the office and fill out an address change form.
- Write a letter to our office informing us of your old address, new address, phone number, and your written signature.
- Download the change of address form PDF download and mail it to our office
- You may also make changes at any locations stated above that provide Mail-In voter registration forms.
You can mail your address change to the Champaign County Clerk at 1776 E. Washington, Urbana, IL 61802.
We can accept address changes year round except during the 28-day period just prior to an election and for the 2 days after an election.
Name Change
When a person changes their name, they are required to re-register. The process is the same as if it were a first time registration. You may do this by completing an In-Person registration form or a Mail-In form (see requirements above). Please provide your former name on either registration form under "Name (if changed)", on the In-Person form or in Section 10 of the Mail-In form.
