Key Points:
Background: Since its launch in 1990, the DV program has given nationals of countries with low immigration rates to the United States an opportunity to apply for a U.S. immigration visa. The program allows for the issuance of up to 55,000 visas per fiscal year. Under U.S. immigration law, no single country may receive more than 7% of available visas in any one year.
