What are the deadlines to vote by absentee ballot?

For military and civilian overseas voters, there are two requirements about when to submit your absentee ballot.

You must affirm that you mailed your ballot no later than 11:59 pm on the day before Election Day.
The County Election Office must receive your ballot no later than 7 days after Election Day by 5 pm.

For federal voters, your ballot must be received by 8pm on Election Day.

So right there, you have November 12 as a last cutoff for "receipt" of the regular absentee ballots for overseas citizens.
