DV lottery apply will be possible only in the American Government's official web site for the DV 2011 program. And the Application form for the diversity visa lottery program only will be available as online E-DV application form. It will be available for a period of 60 days only in the month of October and November 2009.
DV 2011 start date: 2nd October 2009.

Those who want to apply for the DV-2011 must download the application forms from the U.S Government’s official web site and should fill it within the given 60 minutes of time and should be submitted along with the applicant’s digital photo file as instructed. If they couldn't do it in time, then they must download a new E-DV application form and must start the process.
The application can't be saved and used as it is an online submission form.
People living in the USA too can apply for this green card lottery, if they meet the eligibility. Also they can apply for their relatives and friends too regardless of in which country they are living now. Don’t forget a person can apply only one entry as a primary applicant. If applied more than one, all the entries will be rejected regardless of who submitted them.
If you are married, then you will get another part of application to be filled for your spouse. If you have eligible children then you will get one more part of the form for the child/children. Failure to include your spouse or your children will disqualify you from the green card lottery program.
If a husband and wife both meet the required eligibility requirements they each one can submit one entry as primary applicant with the spouse and eligible children. If any of them win the visa lottery the whole family can proceed with the immigrant visa application. If both of them win then the one with the highest qualification must proceed.
Application form and its content are available in English language only. The DV Lottery instructions are available in many regional languages in the internet. But the English language instruction is the official one.
