2 min read
Registration for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 Diversity Visa (DV) lottery closes on Tuesday, 8th November 2022, around early afternoon EST. Foreign nationals who wish to enlist for the FY 2024 DV lottery should submit their online registration forms and accompanying digital photos by that time. Candidates should cautiously follow the State Department’s official lottery directions to try not to have their registration disqualified.
For FY 2024, the U.S. Department of State DV lottery program will make up to 55,000 green card numbers available through random selection. Foreign nationals chosen in the lottery will be eligible to submit a green card application during the 2024 fiscal year, which starts on 1st October 2023.
Who is eligible to enter the Diversity Visa Lottery Registration?
- The DV lottery is available to locals of nations that have historically low rates of immigration to the United States.
- Moreover, people from nations with high rates of U.S. immigration are not qualified to register.
- The people who can not enroll because their nation of birth is rejected might have the option to qualify through a spouse who was born in an eligible country or, in specific conditions, through a parent’s nation of birth.
- Entrants should have at least a high school education (or the same) or two years of qualifying work experience within the past five years.
How lottery winners are chosen and notified
The State Department picks lottery winners by random computer selection. Results will be published beginning 6th May 2023, through 30th September 2024, on the authority DV entry status site.

Foreign nationals can realize whether they were selected by visiting the official DV site and entering their confirmation number. The State Department does not tell entrants by letter, email, fax, or phone. Also, the authority site is the genuine primary source of lottery results.
Guarding against DV lottery fraud
Fake DV lottery sites are standard, yet foreign nationals can and should take precautions to protect themselves. Moreover, learn more about DV lottery fraud by visiting the areas of the State Department and the Federal Trade Commission.
