ARE THERE ANY CHANGES OR NEW REQUIREMENTS IN THE APPLICATION PROCEDURES FOR THIS DIVERSITY VISA REGISTRATION?

The address for submitting DV applications has changed. Applicants must mail their entries to one of the six Kentucky Consular Center regional addresses listed in MAILING THE ENTRY. Entries mailed to any other address will be disqualified. The information required on the entry and on the envelope in which it is sent is specified in detail above. Each entry must be personally signed by the applicant. Photographs of the applicant and all his/her dependents are now required, and the photos must conform to the specifications listed under THE ENTRY. Qualifying work experience will no longer be defined by the Department of Labor’s Dictionary of Occupational Titles, but rather by the more current information contained in the Department of Labor’s O*Net OnLine database. Please also note changes to the list of eligible DV countries.
