Does the address on my Michigan Voter Registration Application have to match the address on my Michigan Driver License?

Yes. If the residence address you provide on the Voter Registration Application differs from the address on your Michigan driver license or personal identification card, the Secretary of State will automatically change your driver license or personal identification card address to match the residence address entered on the Voter Registration Application.


If an address change is made, the Secretary of State will mail you an address update sticker for your driver license or personal identification card.
