Whenever provision is made for absentee voting by a statute of the United States, including the "Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act" (42 U.S.C. 1973ff.), an application for an absentee ballot made under that law may be given the same effect as an application for an absentee ballot made under chapter 10, title 34, Idaho Code.
Idaho Code § 34-410A
