DV Program Overview
DV Program.
Today's diversity visa lottery system has many informal names-the green card lottery, the immigration lottery, the visa lottery, and the Schumer Visa Lottery (named after U.S. Congressman Charles Schumer, its chief sponsor). It became identified with the "DV-" (Diversity Visa) symbol followed by the U.S. Government fiscal year in which the visas are finally awarded.
Today's Lottery System.
Counting NACARA, the number of diversity visas is currently 55,000 per year. However, for the purposes of this book, we will always use the 50,000 figure since 5,000 visas are reserved for NACARA.
The visas are divided between six geographical world regions. No more than 7% (or 3,500) of the 50,000 visas go to immigrants born in any single country. As we will discuss next, there are actually twice as many "winners" initially selected as there are visas granted.
USAICS Service
Our organization provides and guarantees you an easy and convenient online registration. We can assure that your application is correct thus avoiding any errors and subsequent disqualification, and that it is submitted within the time frame set by the U.S. Government. Your application will be reviewed by us and you will be contacted should we need to suggest or make any correction or need to complete information. Every year 25% of the applications fail to enter the lottery due to minor mistakes. Your application will be submitted correctly and on time, giving you a better chance to be one of the winners of the American Green Card Lottery.
Diversity Visa Winners
There are 50,000 visas EACH YEAR available under the Diversity Visa Program. However, 100,000 primary applicants are selected as winners. Therefore, twice as many winners are selected as there are visas available. This is because, historically, about half of those selected change their mind or fail to qualify due to problems with their application.

Benefits
A green card entitles you to live permanently anywhere in the U.S. and work freely at any job, attend a college or usaics, own property, or even start a business of your own. As a permanent resident, you can receive financial aid benefits such as loans, grants, scholarships or other awards based on academic merit to study at a usaics or college of your choice.
Limitations.
A permanent resident must have the intent to reside permanently in the United States. This means you are required to make the U.S. your permanent home or you will risk losing your green card.
As a permanent resident, you must file for U.S. taxes each year according to U.S. law. If you commit certain crimes in the United States, you could lose your green card and be removed (deported).
As a permanent resident, you are ineligible for certain public benefits under the 1996 Welfare Reform Law, signed by ex-president Bill Clinton. This law makes it illegal for persons other than U.S. citizens to receive some benefits. Before 1996, permanent residents could receive welfare, food stamps, Medicaid and other public benefits.
