Chief Elections Officer Anthea Joseph has announced that more than 2,000 individuals have applied for voter confirmation since the process began on October 15, 2025. Speaking during a recent statement, Joseph expressed satisfaction with the progress, noting that the process has been running smoothly. She anticipates an increase in applications as public awareness grows and individuals prepare their identification documents. Joseph emphasized the rigorous verification process in place to ensure the accuracy of voter information. Applicants are required to fill out forms, provide identification, and have their data entered into a system that undergoes a two-step verification process. This includes cross-checking the voter’s registration number, verifying details against submitted forms, and correcting any discrepancies. Joseph also highlighted that applicants can monitor their data entry in real-time at confirmation centers, ensuring accuracy before signing. The confirmation process is set to continue until October 15, 2026, with a possible three-month extension if needed. Joseph urged the public to dress appropriately for photo identification purposes and clarified that old passports, even if not expired, are invalid for the process. Confirmation centers operate from Monday to Friday, 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM, and on Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. A hotline (617-9595) has been established for further inquiries.
