U.S. EMBASSY ANNOUNCES 2009 DIVERSITY VISA LOTTERY PROGRAM
A1+
[11:46 am] 03 October, 2007
The U.S. Embassy Yerevan is pleased to announce that applications
for the 2009 Diversity Visa (DV) Lottery will be accepted beginning
at noon (Washington time) on October 3, 2007 and ending at noon
(Washington time) on December 2, 2007.
Applicants may access the electronic Diversity Visa Lottery entry
form and instructions at http://www.dvlottery.state.gov during the
registration period. Paper entries will not be accepted. Because of
intense, worldwide interest in this exciting opportunity to live and
work in the United States, applicants are strongly encouraged not to
wait until the last week of the registration period to enter since
heavy demand may result in website delays. No entries will be accepted
after noon (Washington time) on December 2, 2007. Additionally, it
should be noted that participation in the DV Lottery does not exclude
applicants from qualifying for a tourist visa to the United States.
The annual DV Lottery program makes permanent residence visas available
to persons meeting the simple, but strict, eligibility requirements. A
computer-generated random lottery drawing chooses the people eligible
to interview for a diversity visa. The more people who apply from
Armenia, the more likely that a greater total number of people from
Armenia will be selected. Please remember, however, that each person
can enter only once per year. In the 2007 DV Lottery, 691 applicants
from Armenia were chosen to interview for immigrant visas.
There have been several instances of groups or individuals attempting
to defraud Diversity Visa Lottery entrants. Lottery entrants selected
as winners in the Diversity Visa random drawing are notified by the
Department of State's Kentucky Consular Center. No other organization
or company is authorized by the Department of State to notify Diversity
Visa Lottery entrants of their winning entry. No money or fees are
collected by the Department of State until the applicants come to
the Embassy for their interview.

information about potential Diversity Visa scams:

The U.S. Embassy in Yerevan will conduct a series of question and
answer sessions for those interested in applying at the Embassy's
American Corners in October.
The dates are as follows: Yerevan - October 11th at 14:00, Gyumri
- October 15th at 15:00 and Vanadzor - October 23rd at 15:00. For
