Live and Work in the USA
The United States Government issues 50,000 permanent resident visas (Green Card)
annually through the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program (DV-Program) also known as
the Green Card Lottery.
Applicants for the DV-Program, who meet the strict eligibility requirements from
countries with low rates of immigration to the United States, are chosen randomly
by a computer generated lottery drawing. If selected you will be notified by mail
including information necessary for immigration to the U.S.
You will receive a FREE airline ticket to the United States from E-GREENCARD if
selected in the Green Card Lottery.

Previous years entries statistics
The table below displays the total entries (Green Card Lottery applicant
forms or electronic submission) received by the State Dep. during the previous
years of the lottery program. For paper based program, the high number of
"Disqualified Forms" is due to missing information, wrong format, wrong addressing
and other misinterpretation of the requirements. For electronic based program, the
high number of "Eliminated" entries is due to exact duplicates and elimination through
facial recognition technology.
