    It's just name, address and DOB

    There are separate databases for every local authority too!

    Whole thing is a complete, archaic mess unfortunately. The British one is very similarly screwed up.

    It should be done with PPSN although in theory one could be resident here without a PPSN and entitled to vote eg a British national on all but referenda and presidential or an EU national on Euro and Local elections etc etc

    Jes that's it, I would have really thought it was a bit more advanced than that... I was thinking the PPs number made sense as I do the cso interview review things and that was the only reason I would have thought they knew I was not at the home address... have the form ready to be signed in the bag now so going to get back on the register asap.. tried two garda stations so far to get it signed and they were both closed...
