False - Of course, you can vote while deployed. If you are registered to vote while deployed and you don’t get your state ballot, you can use the SF 186 (Federal Write-In Ballot). Remember to send it at least 30 days before Nov. 6 (by Oct. 3 is a safe bet). - True or False: Military spouses and dependents can use military absentee voting forms.
True — Your spouse and your child (as long as the child will be 18 years old Nov. 6, 2012) can use the same SF 76 (Federal Postcard Application) and SF ...186 (Federal Write-In Absentee Ballot) as you do. They can even go on-line and register using the same website: www.fvap.gov. If your child is away at college, they can still use those forms and website.See More - Here is a message from the U.S. Ambassador to Bosnia and Herzegovina.
