The Diversity Visa Program Lottery, commonly known as the Green Card Lottery, is an annual program that provides up to 50,000 immigrant visas to individuals from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States. For Pakistani citizens, this program represents a unique opportunity to pursue the American dream through a random selection process.
Pakistan has been eligible for the Diversity Visa Program for many years, allowing qualified Pakistani nationals to apply for permanent residency in the United States. The application process typically opens in October each year and remains open for approximately one month. Applicants must meet strict education or work experience requirements and must submit their entries electronically through the official U.S. Department of State website.
The selection process is completely random and computerized, with winners being notified through the Entrant Status Check available on the official DV program website. Successful applicants must then complete additional paperwork, medical examinations, and interviews at the U.S. Embassy in Islamabad before receiving their immigrant visas.
It is crucial for Pakistani applicants to be aware of potential scams and fraudulent services that claim to guarantee selection in the lottery. The official program is free to enter, and applicants should only use the official U.S. government website to submit their entries. Cultural considerations for Pakistani applicants include ensuring all documents are properly translated and understanding the family-based nature of the visa, which allows spouses and unmarried children under 21 to accompany the principal applicant. |
