Green Card (diversity visa) lottery
One of the ways people can apply for lawful permanent
residence ("green card") status in the United States is through
the Diversity Lottery. This method does not require any family
relationship to a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, or any
permanent offer of employment. Detailed information and
instructions for the 2008 Diversity Lottery are available by
clicking here.
Please be aware that other non-official web sites exist, and may
present misleading, false information. Please be sure to use the
official web site.
Please keep all your
immigration documents!
This is a reminder for you to keep ALL immigration
documents that have been issued for you (e.g., I-20s,
DS-2019s, passports) throughout your time in the U.S.,
even after you extend or change your status, or if you
leave the U.S. You should keep all of your documents
even if you currently have no intention of returning to
the after the
completion of your program. If you decide in the future
to apply for a benefit,
such as permanent residence (green card), you would be
required to provide the immigration
with all your immigration documentation records. OISS is
not required and not able to keep copies of documents
indefinitely. It is your responsibility to keep your
own records.
