The Diversity Visa Lottery, commonly known as the Green Card Lottery, is a program that provides up to 50,000 immigrant visas annually through a random selection process. This program aims to diversify the immigrant population in the United States by offering visas to individuals from countries with low rates of immigration to the US.
To apply for the DV lottery, applicants must meet specific eligibility requirements including being born in an eligible country and having at least a high school education or equivalent work experience. The application process is entirely free and must be completed online during the designated registration period each year.
Pakistan has been an eligible country for the Diversity Visa program in recent years, allowing Pakistani citizens to participate in this opportunity for legal immigration to the United States. The application requires recent photographs that meet strict specifications and accurate personal information.
Successful applicants are selected through a computer-generated random lottery drawing. Those selected must then complete additional processing, including an interview at a US embassy or consulate, and meet all eligibility requirements under US immigration law. |
