   You can use the Elections Ontario's Voter Registration portal to:
   • Confirm your voter information

   • Add yourself if you're missing
   • Remove outdated information
   • Register property-based eligibility
2. Ensure your school support designation is up to date by June 1, 2026. Check your school support designation now.
   Whether you own or rent your home, your property is linked to a school board - even if you don't have children or your children aren't currently attending school. You're not required to make a designation but you do have the option to choose which school board you support. If you don't make a choice, your support will default to the English-Public school board.
