Due to technical issues, the registration period for DV-2019 is being restarted, and all entries made prior to October 18, 2017, will need to be resubmitted for the entrant to be considered.
The new registration period for DV-2019 opens for electronic entries at 11:00am, Wednesday, October 18, 2017, and closes at 11:00am, Wednesday, November 22, 2017.
If you entered before Wednesday, October 18, 2017, that entry will not be considered, and you will need to submit another entry during the new registration period. You may submit one new entry without being disqualified for submitting multiple entries. Individuals who submit more than one entry during the new registration period will be disqualified.
Applicants can access the electronic DV entry form (E-DV) at the official E-DV website, dvlottery.state.gov, during the registration period. DV instructions also are available on the Department of State’s public webpage at usvisas.state.gov/dv/instructions.
All other eligibility requirements remain the same.
Q: How many DV entries does the Department expect for DV-2019?
In DV-2018, the last year for which numbers are available, we received more than 14 million entries from principal applicants.
Q: How will the Department notify applicants whose entries are not valid?
The Department will send an automated email notification to each Diversity Visa entrant from whom an entry was received before October 18, 2017, using the email address provided on the lottery entry form, directing the entrant to check the website dvlottery.state.gov for an important announcement.
Beginning May 15, 2018, DV-2019 entrants will be able to use their unique confirmation number provided at registration to check the online Entrant Status Check at dvlottery.state.gov to see if their entry was selected. Entrant Status Check will inform successful entrants how to apply for DVs for themselves and their eligible family members. The Department also will confirm visa interview appointments through the Entrant Status Check.
Announcement and FAQs are here.
As of today, the electronic Diversity Visa Lottery website is "under maintenance".
Briefly in Russian:
Из-за технических трудностей с регистрацией страны заявителей, Госдеп США аннулировал все заявки на Лотерею Грин Карт, поданные до 18 октября 2017, и объявил новый период регистрации на Лотерею грин карт на 2019 -- с 18 октября по 22 ноября 2017.
Всем заявителям обещают прислать емейл с инструкциями.
В настоящее время вебсайт Госдепа США, где осуществяется прием заявок, не работает, и откроется только 18 октября.
Это значит, что вам нужно будет подать новую заявку после 18 октября 2017, чтобы получить шанс на участие в лотерее на 2019 год. Удачи!
