NEW YORK – Oct. 3, 2017 – PRLog — The Diversity Immigrant Visa Program, also known as the Green Card Lottery (DV-Lottery), came into existence following passage of the Immigration Act of 1990. It’s unique by the fact that, at the time, President George H.W. Bush and congressional leaders recognized the value of diversity and sought its development through a program randomly selecting immigrants from historically low immigration countries.

Every year, the Department of States sets aside Immigrant Visas for 50,000 individuals who are randomly selected through a lottery process. The visas are distributed to six different continents with more visas grande to those countries sending fewer immigrants to the United States through Employment- & Family-based processing during the previous five years.

For this year, the DV-2019 registration process begins at noon, Tuesday, October the 3, 2017, and runs through to noon Tuesday, November 7, 2017.
