In this post, the 2023 DV Lottery Registration Guide to Avoid Disqualification is provided. The application process for the American Diversity Immigrant Visa Program is online and very simple. However, applicants need to be very careful when filling the form to avoid being disqualified from the draw or at the time of the interview if they won the lottery.

Applicants should make sure they submit only one entry as allowed by the law during each registration period. Multiple entries are not permitted. Candidates with multiple entries will simply be disqualified. If you're married, each of you can submit one application by adding the spouse as a derivative.

To apply for the DV Lottery 2023 program, you need to submit the Electronic Diversity Visa Entry Form or DS-5501. The application form is available online through the Electronic Diversity Visa (E-DV) website during the specified registration period. There is no cost to register for the DV lottery program. Please register as soon as possible.

The system usually bugs in the last week of application due to the huge number of applicants in the last few days. You may not be able to submit your application. The entry submission period for DV-2023 is from 12:00 PM EDT (GMT-4) on October 6, 2021 to 12:00 PM EST (GMT-5) on November 9, 2021.

To start, please click on the apply button below and you will be redirected to a page that is similar to the one shown in the picture below. The begin entry button will appear once the application period starts. Please pay attention to the given instructions to avoid making a mistake that will cost you your immigration project to the United States of America.

II – DV Lottery Registration – Country of Eligibility and Passport Information

6. Country of Eligibility for the DV Program

Your country of eligibility (chargeability) is normally your country of birth. Your country of eligibility is NOT related to where you live nor the citizenship you hold. Please answer the question Are you claiming eligibility based on the country where you were born? By selecting Yes or NO. If your answer is no (meaning your country of birth is ineligible for the Diversity Visa 2023), you have to choose another country from which you're claiming eligibility.

If your birth country is not eligible, you may choose your country of eligibility as the country of birth of your spouse, or the country of birth of either of your parents if you were born in a country in which neither parent was born, and in which your parents were not resident at the time of your birth. Selecting an incorrect country of eligibility or chargeability will disqualify you. Please click on the American Diversity Immigrant Visa Program for more details on eligible countries.

7. Passport

In order to submit an entry for the 2023 Diversity Visa program, you must currently possess a valid, unexpired passport from your country of nationality, unless exempt (see below). Please answer A or B.

A) Passport Information: Please fill in the corresponding field, your last/family name, first name, middle name, passport number, and passport expiration date as they appear in your passport. Also, select the country of issuance of your passport. Do not forget to check No First Name or No Middle Name if you do not have a first or middle name. Please check the image below to see how the passport section is shown in the online form.

B) Passport Exemption: Please select the option that corresponds to your situation. Please note that if it's later determined that you're not exempt from the passport requirement, you may be disqualified from the Diversity Visa program.

V – DV Lottery Registration – Level of Education and Family Situation

13. What is the highest level of education you have achieved, as of today?

Please select the highest level of education you have achieved, as of today. You must have a minimum of a high school diploma reflecting the completion of a full course of study (vocation schools or equivalency degrees are not acceptable) or be a skilled worker in an occupation that requires at least two years of training or experience to qualify (visit onetonline.org to see if your occupation qualifies) for a Diversity Visa.

14. What is your current marital status?

Please select your marital status. If you're married at the time of application, you must select married. Married means legally married with official documents to prove that. If you're married and apply as single, you will be disqualified at the time of the interview. However, if you're married traditionally and there is no official document to prove your status, you should apply as single.

You must list your spouse even if you currently are separated from him/her unless you are legally separated. Legal separation is an arrangement when a couple remains married but lives apart, following a court order. If you and your spouse are legally separated, your spouse will not be able to immigrate with you through the Diversity Visa program. If your spouse is a U.S. citizen or a Lawful Permanent Resident, do not list him/her in your entry since him/her won't be needing a Diversity Visa.

15. Number of Children

Please enter the number of children you have. Children include all biological children, legally adopted children, and stepchildren who are unmarried and under the age of 21 on the date, you submit your entry. You must include all eligible children, even if they do not live with you or if they do not intend to apply for a Diversity Visa as your derivative. Failure to list all eligible children is grounds for disqualification. If your child is a U.S. citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident, do not list him/her in your entry.

VIII – DV Lottery Registration – Important Notice

Below is some useful information that those who would like to apply for the DV lottery 2023 should pay attention to.

How can I increase my chances of winning the DV lottery in 2023?

Married applicants can increase their chances by submitting two different applications with each of the married couple being a principal applicant and the other one a derivative.

If your children are eligible to apply, do submit an application for them. If they won and immigrate to the USA, you can later get your green card through them.

Single applicants can't do anything to increase their chances since the selection is done randomly by a computer program. However, they should make sure to not make a mistake that may disqualify them from the draw or prevent them from getting their visa if they won.

DV lottery 2023 registration date

The DV lottery 2023 application dates: Entries to the 2023 DV-Lottery Program must be submitted between noon EDT, Wednesday, October 6, 2021, and until noon EDT on Tuesday, November 9. The submissions is only done electronically on the state department website. Please click on the apply button below to access the online application form for the DV lottery.

Is my country eligible for the 2023 DV lottery?

Please click on the American Diversity Immigrant Visa Program for more details on eligible countries. Please note that your country of eligibility is NOT related to where you live nor the citizenship you hold. It is the country where you were born. For example, for the 2023 DV program, Brazil is not eligible. It doesn't mean all Brazilians cannot apply for the DV program this year. Brazilians who were born in a foreign country that is eligible can still apply for the 2023 Diversity Visa program.

If your birth country is not eligible, you may choose your country of eligibility as the country of birth of your spouse, or the country of birth of either of your parents if you were born in a country in which neither parent was born, and in which your parents were not resident at the time of your birth.

Is there an age requirement to apply for the E-DV Program?

There is no age limit to apply. Anyone who meets the high school education or work experience requirement, have a passport and was born in a country that is eligible, can apply for the DV lottery 2023.

What occupations qualify for the DV program?

The O*Net OnLine database is used to determine the qualifying work experience. To qualify for a DV on the basis of your work experience, you must have, within the past five years, two years of experience in an occupation classified in a Specific Vocational Preparation (SVP) range of 7.0 or higher. Please click here to access the O*Net OnLine website and follow the steps below to determine if your occupation qualifies:

  1. Under "Find Occupations," select "Job Family" from the pull-down menu;
  2. Browse by "Job Family," make your selection, and click "GO";
  3. Click on the link for your specific occupation; and
  4. Select the tab "Job Zone" to find the designated Job Zone number and Specific Vocational Preparation (SVP) rating range.

For example, the SVP Range for Carpenters is (4.0 to 6.0). This means Carpenters are not eligible to apply for DV program.

Other Points About the DV lottery 2023 registration

  • Each person is allowed to submit only one application. Duplicate applications will disqualify you from the draw.
  • Your photo must have been taken within the last 6 months and aligned with size, background and other dv photo requirements, otherwise, you will be disqualified.
  • If possible apply yourself to avoid any error. If someone applied for you, make sure to have a copy of the confirmation page, otherwise, you might be scammed later if you win.
  • Please use your own email while applying. If you don't have an email account, you can easily get one for free.
