It is a annual basis lottery, conducted by the Department of State to provide for a new class of immigrants known as "diversity immigrants". The Act makes available 50000 permanent resident visas annually to natives of countries deemed to have low rates of immigration to the United States.

ALWAYS REMEMBER!! There is no charge to enter the diversity visa lottery, and the only way to do so is by completing and sending the electronic form available at the U.S. Department of State's website during the registration period. However, there are numerous companies and websites that charge a fee in order to complete the form for the applicant. 

If anyone called/emailed you and told you that you're eligible and they can help you with a higher chance....tell them you'll do it yourself! For Free! Because US Department of state said it have the equal chance!
  1. First of all, to enter the DV program, you must meet either the education or work experience requirement of the DV program:  You must have a successful completion a altogether 12 years of primary and secondary school ; OR two years of work experience within the past five years in an occupation requiring at least two years of training or experience to perform. 
  2. Second, all you have to do is go to the photo shop and get a US Visa Picture for yourself. It have to be 2" x 2" and tell them to get you a CD and please get them to help you to resize to 600 pixels x 600 pixels and below 240 KB, lastly has to be JPEG. 
  3. HERE COMES THE IMPORTANT PART: The Department of State will only accept completed E-DV entry forms submitted electronically at www.dvlottery.state.gov during the registration period between noon, EDT (GMT-4), Tuesday, October 4, 2011, and noon, EDT (GMT-4), Saturday, November 5, 2011There are NO COSTS or FEES to register for the DV Program.
  4. It is very important that you submit all required photographs. Your entry will be disqualified if you do 
  5. not submit all the required photographs.  Recent photographs of the following people must be submitted
  • You 
  • Your spouse
    • Each unmarried child under 21 years of age at the time of your electronic entry, including all natural 
    • children as well as all legally adopted children and stepchildren, even if a child no longer resides with 
    • you or you do not intend for a child to immigrate under the DV program
    • (So GET ALL YOUR PHOTO READY)
     5. The Department of State strongly encourages applicants to complete the entry form without the assistance of “Visa Consultants,” “Visa Agents,” or other individuals who offer to submit an entry on behalf of applicants.  If you use the services of somebody else to complete your entry form, you should be present when the entry is prepared, and you should retain the confirmation page and your unique confirmation number.  Facilitators may try to withhold confirmation numbers in order to make an unlawful demand for money in exchange for notification information that should have been directly available to you.  (Just Ask me !! For FREE)

KEEP the confirmation page and your Unique confirmation number to yourself. ( They'll nvr resend, so keep a few copies)

You can expect the drawing results will be out around May - July 2012. Then You will need to submit some paperwork, You can petition your parents, spouse or children under 21 years old even though you haven't include them in your application. AFTER the paper work, here comes the very very final part, You'll be scheduled for an interview at the local embassy (That will be before September 2013). BEFORE THAT, there is a few document that you need to prepare 1-2 months earlier(because of the putrajaya speed, LOL). (I had postpone my interview and nearly miss this wonderful chance by not preparing well)
