The US State Department has announced that the registration period for the 2021 Diversity Visa Program (DV-2021), popularly known as the Green Card Lottery, will begin on Wednesday, October 2nd, 2019 at 12pm EDT and end on Tuesday, November 5th, 2019 at 12pm EST.

A total of 55,000 permanent resident visas (green cards) will be available through this program.

The State Department reminds participants that there is no cost to register for the Diversity Visa program. Registration is done free online.

The Diversity Visa program provides permanent resident visas to nationals of countries with low immigration rates to the Unites States over the last five years.

Kenya is one the eligible countries to participate in the program.

For DV-2021 the following countries are ineligible to apply because more than 50,000 of their nationals immigrated to the US in the last five years.

Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, China (mainland-born), Colombia, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, India, Jamaica, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Philippines, South Korea, United Kingdom (except Northern Ireland) and its dependent territories, and Vietnam.

Unfortunately it is useless but it shouldn't be because people spend many years in school and shouldn't be counted for nothing. I have a cousin who came over and he is amongst the best of his class just few months after admission(series of A scores) was his education in Africa useless...

Thanks for the Info. There was a rumour sometimes back that this time they gonna need passport numbers. I don't know if maybe anyone has come across that may be. ? That you won't be able to participate without a passport.
