EDV lottery 2017 2016 Result. The Diversity Immigrant Visa program is a United States Congressional mandated lottery program for receiving a United States Permanent Resident Card. It is also known as the Green Card Lottery. 

The lottery is administered on an annual basis by the Department of State and conducted under the terms of Section 203(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Section 131 of the Immigration Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101-649) amended INA 203 to provide for a new class of immigrants known as “diversity immigrants” (DV immigrants). 

The Act makes available 55,000 permanent resident visas annually to natives of countries deemed to have low rates of immigration to the United States. EDV lottery 2017 2016 Result. History The Immigration Act of 1990 established the Diversity Visa (DV) program, where 55,000 immigrant visas would be available in an annual lottery, starting in fiscal year 1995. 

The lottery aims to diversify the immigrant population in the United States, by selecting applicants mostly from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States in the previous five years. Starting in fiscal year 1999, 5,000 of the visas from the DV program are reserved for use by the NACARA program, so the number of immigrant visas available in the lottery is reduced to 50,000. Distribution and lottery process The visas are distributed on a regional basis, with each region sending fewer immigrants to the US in the previous 5 years receiving more diversity visas. 

Currently, Africa and Europe receive about 80% of the visas in the lottery. Over 13.6 million applications for the 2008 Diversity Visa Lottery (DV-2010) were submitted — an increase of 4.5 million, or 50%, from the 9.1 million applications submitted in the 2007 Diversity Visa Lottery (DV-2009). Roughly 14.5 million applications were submitted for 2013 Diversity Visa Lottery (DV-2015), which meant that a particular person had the chance of 0.34% of winning the lottery.
