The State Department will open registration for the Diversity Visa 2024 lottery Wednesday, Oct. 5. Up to 55,000 diversity immigrant visas will be available to nationals of countries with historically low immigration to the U.S.
Key Points:
BAL Analysis: The State Department urges applicants not to wait until the final week to register because heavy demand may cause website delays. Individuals should also be aware of scams that frequently target DV lottery registrants. Individuals are reminded that the registration process is free and that the only way to enter the lottery and obtain lottery results is via the State Department’s E-DV website.
