yes KCC has started sending out NL to first batch, if i may use that world.

Like Jonhket has said, there is no way on the net where names of winners are Published.
you can only get NL to indicate that you are a winner. If you do not receive any, that means you did not win. provided your postal service is effective.

Consular Processing - that is if you choose to go through the visa application process via a designated us embassy abroad like Nigeria or Ghana. I hope this helps.

Hi all, I really appreciate a forum like this as it gives an insight into the functionalities of the Lottery.

I have numerous questions but would appreciate if I can be assisted with just two for now.

1. When NL's are sent out is it done through courier services like DHL or through the goverment posts like NIPOST as the case would be in Nigeria. Hence would a residential address be adviceable or rather a post office box?

2.If a lottery participant is currently unmarried, but engaged and recieves a NL, what would be his best approach to enable him get a GC along with his fiancee.

Thanks a bunch and good luck to all DV2009 hopefuls'

To the best of my knowledge, NL are not sent by any special delivery apart from ordinary post be it a residential address or not.If your number is randomly selected as is the case, you will receive your NL via ordinary post.Don't forget that the application process didn't cost you anything so i doubt if the Capitalist US gov't will spend the tax payers income to deliver NL via special deliveries.If you do use any special post then you might as well be prepared to pay for any additional delivery cost.

In the case of an unmarried couple , i believe they can get married and Notify KCC by sending a copy of their marriage certificate including a new DS-230. The downside however will be how to convince the Consular during the interview that they are not married for the sake of the GC .Personally i'll get married to my fiancee or at least have enough proof of an imminent wedding prior to receivng the NL if i'm so hopeful that i'll win.This to a large extent will wipe out any possible doubts that the Consular might have at the time of the interview.This is my personal opinion and i do hope you'll find something useful out of it. All the best.

Abeku66 has said it all...

[Hence would a residential address be adviceable or rather a post office box?
It depends on where you are staying. To me, considering the fact that some residencial address can be dificult to locate and may cause the postal agent officer who may not know the value of the package to give up in looking for your house address.
So to me.. postal office is better..

Abeku.

but you can also decide to qet married after qettinq your NL, before postinq it, but d important thing is that you will have to be married becos you will need d certificate.
or you will wait till five year to be able to file for your partner

KCC does not send any notifications to GC winners.

[luckies]

KCC does not send any notifications to GC winners.

I think he is saying that the package was sent through his mail box or house address.

[Tazmania]

That would make sense
