The U.S. Department of State (DOS) has just released an update that the
online entry registration period for the 2011 Diversity Immigrant Visa
program will be October 2 until November 30. The Diversity Immigrant
Visa Program enables up to 50,000 diversity visas to be available
annually. These visas are drawn randomly from all entries received from
individuals that have met the specific requirements of the program and
are from countries with low rates of immigration to the U.S.

The entry period for the DV-2010 program ended on December 1, 2008.
Information about selected individuals is now available and individuals
that entered the lottery through the program’s official website
(www.dvlottery.state.gov) can check the status of their lottery entry
at that same website address.
