Thank you so much. I have been applying since 2009, and got tired along the way. Now, you have rekindled my fire once again.

[@amadubarrie7990]

Mr EBM thanks 🙏 for your explanation and advice

[@gouthia]

I have never seen an easier form to fill out. Guys, please do not pay for these easy steps to follow. It is even recommended to not use any intermediary who will charge you money to fill out these forms. I have won the lottery green card twice and never have to pay anything. I hate to see people taking advantage of others that think they are in a weak position. Follow the guidelines on the form, if you win you win, if you lose you try again another time. It’s just my thoughts and good luck🙏🏽.

[@ambit9792]

Hey you got the link?

[@gouthia]

@@ambit9792 Hi. I do not got the link. Should be easy to find on the US Department of State website. It is all free.

[@faithjeptoo3549]

Hey you won twice.. how

[@gouthia]

@@faithjeptoo3549 Yes, let say 50,000 people are selected. Now the immigration office will start processing those 50,000 people between Dec 2024 and November 2025. If your document did not get processed within that timeframe, your case will be dismissed. What are the chances of a candidate making it if his case number is 49,899 out of 50,000 cases being processed within a few months? You see what I mean? If you make it during that timeframe then they will continue the process until the green card gets issued. In my situation, I got selected during year X and the case number was far around 35,000 and did not make it before the timeframe expired, but the year after I was again selected and my case number was around 20,000 and got processed before the timeframe expired. You are luckier if you are in the low numbers. I have tried my best to explain, I am not an immigration officer🤣

Hello sir, thank you for your advice. I play DV for many people with this advice I 👍

[@Pjayschannel]

Thanks for taking time to explain this to us but my question is, What if my passport picture was taken a month before my application of the DV lottery, does that make me ineligible to apply??

[@giftyessandoh8479]

The passport picture should be at most 6 months old….so 1 month does not make you ineligible

[@danielteyehuago1633]

Since it won't be more than six months on the day you will apply. You can go ahead and use it.

City of birth means your place of birth. In american way, there's no village. All are cities. So u write your place of birth, where its a city or village. Your passport can guide u on this
