What Information Is Kept In the Registry?

Registrants must provide address, employment, and school information. The registry also contains information about the registrant's appearance, such as height, weight and eye color. The registry also contains information about the person's offense history and criminal record. The registry also contains information about a registrant's address, place of employment, and school enrollment. If a registrant is on probation, parole, or other correctional supervision, the registrant's agent or other staff person will provide this information to the registry, and will help update it as needed. If a registrant is not on supervision, then the registrant must provide this information.

If there is a change in any of the registrant's residence information, it must be reported to the registry as soon as possible, but usually within 10 days of the change. If the person is on parole or extended supervision, the person must report changes before they occur. If registrants do not know of the changes in advance, they must report the changes within 24 hours after the change. If the registrant is going to move, work, or attend school outside of Wisconsin, the person must notify the registry at least 10 days before the change. The person must also notify the registry in the state to which they will be moving. In addition to reporting changes promptly, each registrant must update and verify their registry information at least once per year. Registrants with more than one conviction for a registerable offense must update and verify their information every 90 days.
