DV-2015 Winners Announced!





Diversity Immigrant 2015 (“DV-2015”) lottery winners have been notified.
Please check your result!

For DV-2015, approximately 125,514 applicants have been registered and notified. The winners may now make an application for an immigration visa.   50,000 resident visas will be given annually.  The larger figure should insure all DV-2015 numbers will be used since it is likely that some of the first 50,000 persons registered may not pursue their cases to visa issuance.  For the DV-2015, 9,388,986 qualified entries (14,397,781 with derivatives) were received during the 30-day application period.  


Dates for the DV-2016 program registration period will be publicized in the coming month.  Congratulations to the DV-2015 winners!

The following is the statistical breakdown by foreign-state chargeability of those registered for the DV-2015 program:
