Results
of the DV-2000 visa lottery (last year)
The National Visa Center at Portsmouth, New Hampshire
normally notifies and registers the winners of the DV Lottery. By now, the VISA
CENTER should have registered and
notified the lucky winners of the DV-2000 diversity lottery. If all the 50,000
visas to be allocated are not claimed by their winners, the Center will continue
to allocate visas to all the more than one million applicants who apllied until
all 50,000 visas available are allocated. This will run from (October 1, 1999 until September 30, 2000).
When you go for a visa interview
after winning the lottery visa, you will be asked to provide proof of a high school education or
its equivalent, or proved that you have, for two years, worked in an occupation that
requires at least two years of training or experience within the past five
years.
If you were a winner and you live
abroad, you must act really fast. All the instructions for claiming your visa
are already included in the notification letter or package you received from the
National Visa Center.
If you are already living in the
US and are a winner, you must apply quickly for an adjustment of your status.
You may contact the Immigration and Naturalization Services (INS) for
information on the procedures to follow and the requirements.
Please note that after the
National Visa Center has distributed all the available 50,000 visa numbers, the program for
fiscal year 2000 will end. If you were selected but did not receive or apply for
a visa by
September 30, 2000, you and the family members that you wanted to take with you
will be disqualified from your DV-2000 registration and status. This is why it
is important for you to act on your application as soon as you are informed of
your selection as one of the winners of the Diversity Visa.
If you applied for DV-2000., but
did not receive notification of any kind, this means you were not selected as a
winner of the Diversity Visa lottery. Try again and keep trying until you become
a winner. The next lottery (DV-2001) is scheduled to begin on October 4, 1999.
To be considered, all applications must be received between noon on October 4,
1999 and November, 1999.

Lottery, visit the Diversity Lottery page.
