Queensland Electoral Enrolment Application or Update Record
Completed electoral enrolment and update-of-enrolment forms, and the enrolment transaction records that ECQ and the AEC hold under the joint roll arrangement (Electoral Act 1992 (Qld) s 62). A claim for enrolment carries the elector's name, date of birth, residential, postal and previous addresses, and evidence of identity: an Australian driver's licence number, an Australian passport number, Medicare card details or a citizenship certificate number (Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918 ss 98, 98AA; AEC form ER022ESw_QLD Q2, Q3, Q6 and Q7). Queensland enrolment and provisional enrolment of 16 and 17 year olds run under Electoral Act 1992 ss 65 and 66. Date of birth, sex, occupation and enrolment date are restricted information that is never in the publicly available part of the roll (Electoral Regulation 2024 s 5), and Electoral Act s 33 makes the information confidential in the hands of anyone administering the Act. The "Enrol or update your enrolment" guidance, blank forms and published enrolment figures are decoys.

- Confidence justification
- Medium. Enrolment wording is shared with school, TAFE and course enrolment, so enforce tiers need an electoral context term and populated fields. The identity fields are label-anchored because the classifier does not validate licence, passport or Medicare formats; the elector identifying number (Electoral Act s 58(3)(d)) has no published format and is not used. 85/75 are heuristic evidence tiers, not measured accuracy. Test values are synthetic.

Known false positives
- ECQ and AEC enrolment guidance pages, which name the same evidence-of-identity documents. Mitigation: Enforce tiers need a populated date of birth plus a populated address or identity number, on the same line as the label. Guidance names documents but carries no values.
- School, TAFE, university and course enrolment forms with a DOB and address. Mitigation: Enforce tiers need an electoral context term (electoral roll, elector, ECQ, AEC, electoral district, enrolled address) within 300 characters.
- Blank enrolment forms and published enrolment figures. Mitigation: Blank lines, date masks and bracket placeholders are rejected, and a figures exclusion suppresses total State enrolment, weighted enrolment and enrolment statistics.
