An applicant who receives a Diversity Immigrant visa is allowed to permanently live and work in the United States. They may also bring their spouse and any unmarried children under the age of 21 along with them. When granted permanent residence through the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program, the cardholder can work at any job and/or start a business. How it Works The U.S. Government holds the U.S. Green Card Lottery each year, and randomly chooses about 110, 000 applicants from all qualifying entries. Each region’s entries are individually numbered when they reach the Kentucky Consular Center. At the end of the registration period, entries are randomly selected from each geographic region by a computer. Within each region, the first entry picked is the first case registered, the second entry is the second case registered, and so on. All entries from each geographic region have an equal chance of being randomly chosen.

A. It is extremely unlikely you can revive your old lottery case. When the U.S. Department of State picks a lottery winner for a particular year, the winner must get residence within that year.

The Diversity Visa Lottery winners are selected in a computerized random drawing. Persons whose names are selected may apply for one of 50,000 Diversity Immigrant Visas made available each year. These visas are available only to persons from eligible countries with low immigration rates to the United States, according to the rules of the DV program. Registration for the Diversity Visa Lottery is free. Persons seeking to enter the lottery must register online through the designated Web site (www.dvlottery.state.gov/), and digital photos must be submitted with the registration form. Paper entries will not be accepted. The Department of State Kentucky Consular Center in Williamsburg, Kentucky, will notify the lottery winners by mail (NOT e-mail) between May 2008 and July 2008. The winners will be provided instructions on how to apply for DV-2009 visas, which will be issued between October 1, 2008, and September 30, 2009. (more…)
If the individual qualifies they will be able to work and enjoy life in America legally! The winners will also be able to bring their spouse and any unmarried child under the age of 21 to the United States.

Any alien who fails to comply with [these] provisions shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.”
This, Indian American groups claim, threatens to affect their interests adversely as it moves away from the family-oriented process, which is currently in place, and puts the parents, children and siblings of citizens and Green Card holders in the firing line. (more…)
Kentucky Consular Center (KCC) will send the letters notifying those selected. These letters will contain instructions for the visa application process. (more…)
Number one, take a large bottle of water. This cannot be stressed enough. Dehydration while you’re traveling is common, and since you only get a drink once or twice on your flight, there will be times when you are more than grateful for that water. (more…)
