Diversity Visa Program in Texas
Dallas Diversity Visa Immigration Lawyer
Each year, the Diversity Lottery (DV) Program makes 50,000 new immigrant visas available for individuals from countries with historically low rates of immigration to the United States.
The United States government encourages diversity when it comes to immigration. The DV Program requires that you have either a high school education, its equivalent, or two years work experience within the last five years in a job which demands two years training. There is no cost to register for the DV Program. You or your spouse must be a native of a nation eligible for the DV Program, and are entitled to two entries in the lottery. Selectees are chosen through a randomized computer drawing. The fewer immigrants a country had to the U.S. the year before, the higher their applicants chances of winning will be.

Commonly Asked Questions
What is the Diversity Visa Program?
The Diversity Visa (DV) Program is a United States government initiative that allocates 50,000 immigrant visas each year to individuals from countries with historically low rates of immigration to the U.S. The program aims to diversify the immigrant population in the United States by selecting applicants through a randomized computer drawing from eligible countries.
Is there a fee to register for the Diversity Visa Program?

How does the selection process for the DV Program work?
The selection process for the DV Program involves a randomized computer drawing. The computer selects individuals from the pool of eligible applicants.

Can I apply for the DV Program if I am married?

In fact, if both you and your spouse are eligible, you can each submit one entry to the program, effectively doubling your chances of being selected. However, it's important to note that both entries must include details of the spouse and any children under 21 years of age.
