INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE 2020 DIVERSITY IMMIGRANT VISA PROGRAM (DV-2020)

Program Overview

The Department of State annually administers the statutorily-mandated Diversity Immigrant Visa
Program. Section 203(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) provides for a class of
immigrants known as “diversity immigrants” from countries with historically low rates of immigration
to the United States. For Fiscal Year 2020, 50,000 Diversity Visas (DVs) will be available. There is no
cost to register for the DV program.
Applicants who are selected in the program (“selectees”) must meet simple but strict eligibility
requirements to qualify for a diversity visa. The Department of State determines selectees through a
randomized computer drawing. The Department of State distributes diversity visas among six
geographic regions, and no single country may receive more than 7 percent of the available DVs in any
one year.
For DV-2020, natives of the following countries are not eligible to apply, because more than 50,000
natives of these countries immigrated to the United States in the previous five years:
Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, China (mainland-born), Colombia, Dominican Republic, El
Salvador, Haiti, India, Jamaica, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, South Korea,
United Kingdom (except Northern Ireland) and its dependent territories, and Vietnam.
Persons born in Hong Kong SAR, Macau SAR, and Taiwan are eligible.
There were no changes in eligibility this year from the previous fiscal year.

Who cares??

Why will they include Nigeria when all of u, including your president always come out to rubbish the image of the country?

U people only speak about the negative things in the country without saying anything about the positives and now u want those who always read them online to come and include u people.

U people (including the failure of a president) should continue speaking ill of the nation until all of u are banned from traveling out.

U people should continue.

why should they include you when you are known for online scamms and drugs....??....

THE WRITEUP says , because more than 50,000 had emigrated the last year


Reminds me of a facebook status i read today


'' All of una wey dey yankee make una return so that next batch go fit go ''

Stay put and wallow in your shithole till you fix it!

Because Nigerians are all over the US
Na only dem dey waka KAM?

GavelSlam:



You are the one actually writing rubbish.

It's clearly starred that more than 50k Nigerians have emigrated to the US.

India is also on the list. I'm guessing for you it's because their people have been badmouthing their nation as well.

What were you expecting from some kids who can't read but always quick to post online, the reason Nigeria and other countries were excluded was given yet they'll jump in to badmouth the country because of Buhari, free that kid abeg.

Says who?
Why not get your facts right before coming on forums like this and spewing out inaccurate info.
Diversity Visa Lottery is an Act by the US Congress and only with the consent of the US Congress can this Act be repealed.

Trump does not have full power to terminate it.
The fact that the Program is on the US Department of State official Website for 2020 year is a Proof that it has not been Cancelled.
