SIR Form Filling Process 2025 for Married Women: Many married women often feel confused about how to properly fill out the SIR (Summary Intensive Revision) form during the voter list update process.
The Election Commission of India has made this form essential for ensuring that all voter information is correct before the 2026 elections.
In this article, we will clearly explain, in simple and human-friendly language, how married women can fill out this form correctly and avoid common mistakes.
Where Will Married Women Receive the SIR Form?
The Booth Level Officer (BLO) will deliver the form to your registered address as per the 2025 voter list.
- If your name is still listed at your parental home, the form will reach your parental home.
- If your name has already been transferred to your in-laws’ home, the form will be sent there.
So, the form will be delivered based on your current voter registration location.
What Details Will You See on the SIR Form?
At the top of the form, you will notice the title “Election Commission of India – Summary Revision Form”. The form will include:
- The name and contact number of your BLO
- Your full name, voter ID number, village, and constituency details
- A QR code for verification
- Your current voter card photograph
- A blank box for your new coloured passport-size photograph
Paste a clear and recent colour photo in the given space. This new photograph will appear on your updated 2026 voter card that will be sent to your home.
How to Fill Out the Date of Birth
- Write your date of birth (day, month, and year) exactly as it appears on your 2025 voter card.
- If your date of birth is incorrect, write it as shown on the card. This form is not for making corrections.
- Always write numbers in English, not in Bengali.
Aadhaar and Mobile Number
- Write your Aadhaar number (if available) in English digits.
- Enter your mobile number for official contact. If your household uses only one mobile number, that is sufficient.
Filling Out the Guardian’s Name
This part is very important. Check your voter card to see whose name is printed as your guardian.
- If your father’s name appears, write your father’s name here.
- If your husband’s name appears, write your husband’s name.
You can write the name in either Bengali or English (capital letters). If your father or husband has a voter card, write their EPIC (voter ID) number as per the 2025 voter list.
How to Write Mother’s Details
- Write your mother’s name as mentioned in the official records.
- You may write it in Bengali or English.
- If your mother has a voter ID card, mention her EPIC number according to the 2025 list.
Filling Out the Husband’s Information
- If you are married, write your husband’s name in the appropriate box.
- If you are unmarried, leave the space blank.
- Mention your husband’s EPIC number as per the 2025 voter roll.
Understanding the Left and Right Boxes in the SIR Form
In the SIR form, two main sections exist, the left box and the right box. You need to fill out only one of them.
- If your own name was in the 2002 voter list, fill out the left box.
- If your name was not in the 2002 list, fill out the right box, using information from your father, mother, grandfather, or grandmother’s 2002 voter list details.
Case 1: If Your Name Were in the 2002 Voter List
Fill out the left box as follows:
- Write your name exactly as it appeared in the 2002 list (even if the spelling was wrong).
- Enter your EPIC number from the 2002 list.
- Write your relative’s name as shown in the 2002 record.
- In the “Relationship” box, write “Self”.
- Fill in the district, state, assembly constituency name and number, part number, and serial number as per the 2002 list.
Case 2: If Your Name Was Not in the 2002 Voter List
Fill out the right box as follows:
You can only mention the name of one of your four closest relatives from your parental side:
- Father
- Mother
- Grandfather
- Grandmother
You cannot use your husband’s 2002 voter list.
Steps:
- Find the 2002 voter list from your parental home’s polling booth.
- Write your relative’s name exactly as it appears in that list.
- Enter their EPIC number, if available.
- Write their relative’s name as per the 2002 list.
In the “Relationship” box, write the correct relation:
- Father
- Mother
- Grandfather
- Grandmother
Then, fill in the district, state, constituency, part number, and serial number based on the 2002 list.
Signature or Thumb Impression
At the end of the form:
- Sign your name clearly.
- If you cannot sign, give your thumb impression.
- If you are not at home, an adult family member (18 years or older) can fill and sign the form for you.
They must write their relationship to you and the date. After submission, the BLO will verify and sign the form.
- One copy will be taken by the BLO.
- The other copy will remain with you as a receipt.
SIR Form Filling Process 2025 for Married Women Documents
At the time of filling out and submitting the SIR form, you do not need to submit any documents.
However, if an ERO hearing notice is issued later, you will need to carry your original documents for verification.
Key Takeaway
The SIR form process is designed to ensure all voter details are correctly updated before the 2026 elections. Married women should carefully verify whether their name is registered at their parental home or their in-laws’ home to avoid any confusion. Once the form is correctly filled out and verified, the new voter ID card will be sent directly to your address.
