U.S. Begins 2014 Visa Lottery
by Abiodun Oluwarotimi
Oct 04, 2012 (Leadership/All Africa Global Media via COMTEX) --

The US State Department's Bureau of Consular Affairs has announced the commencement of the 2014 Diversity Visa program (DV-2014).

According to information obtained by our Correspondent, the entry submission period for the programme which started at 12:00 PM EDT (GMT -4) on October 2, 2012 will end at 12:00 PM EDT (GMT -4) on November 3, 2012.

The bureau also stated that the entry form will only be available for submission during this period only, and added that entries will be accepted through the U.S. Postal.

Meanwhile, legislation which would eventually eliminate the Diversity Visas is in progress in the U.S Congress.

Sponsors of the bill are also working to re-allocate the 55,000 visas currently awarded to Diversity Visa Lottery winners and reserve them for undocumented immigrants already in the United States.

The proposed legislation, however, specifies that beneficiaries must be graduates in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM.)

In the Senate, Senator John Cornyn a Republican from Texas has already introduced a bill (S. 3185) that would re-allocate Diversity Visas to STEM graduates.

The Diversity Visa Programme , popularly known as Green Card Lottery Visa programme was established in 1990 to provide visas to persons from specific countries.

As moves are being made to eliminate it, an adjustment was made in the 2013 edition to include citizens of South Sudan and Poland while Bangladesh was removed as a qualifying country because of their high rate of migration to the US.

Go to any studio with the requirements @ hand & ask if they can manage to take the photo to the stated specificity.Any studio worth their salt should be able to pull it off.U dont need the physical photo since the digital will do(it should cost less since there's no printing).Just make sure to confirm the photo specs(Image File Format,Image File Size, Image Resolution and Dimensions & Image Color Depth) b4 leaving the studio.

Cheers.

I beg to differ.Sure,as a LPR,u can apply for federal loans for ur education which u will have to pay back with interest just like HELB(unless its a grant or scholarship).Hii ni biashara

[h=1]Mitt Romney on Immigration[/h][h=2]Former Republican Governor (MA); presidential nominee-apparent[/h]

• Sub-sections under Immigration:
• Immigrant Benefits
• Other issues under Immigration

[h=3]Focus on reuniting families instead of diversity or DREAMers[/h]Q: There are 1.7 million undocumented students that could benefit from deferred action [on deportation]. It would enable them to go to college, join the military, and get work permits.A: Let me respond more broadly and then get to the specific of young people who were brought here through no fault of their own, and are now going to school here. The immigration system, I think we all agree, is broken and it's been a political football for years and years. It needs to be fixed. Also, instead of having our diversity visas offered, we provide instead the chance to pull families together. I want that to be the favored system for immigration. I also believe that we should have temporary work visas consistent with the needs of the employment community and by the way, if the student does so well that they get an advanced degree, I'd staple the green card to their diploma. For those young people who, for instance, serve in our military, that they should be able to become a permanent resident.

Step 4: Your Interview at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate Abroad

After all of your forms have been received and approved by the Kentucky Consular Center (KCC), based on visa availability, you may receive an interview appointment letter indicating the date, time, and location of your visa interview. You will need to be present at the interview, as well as your spouse and children (as applicable) who are applying for a diversity immigrant visa.

Medical Exam

Before your interview, diversity visa applicants will need to have completed the required medical exam, including required vaccinations. You will need to schedule your medical exam appointment. Review Medical Exam and Physicians for a list of required Panel Physicians in your country, instructions for the medical exam and medical exam frequently asked questions (FAQs).

You should prepare thoroughly and carefully for your interview. Failure to be fully prepared for your interview at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate can result in delay or denial of the visa. It is important that you follow any additional instructions provided by the Embassy or Consulate on the Interview Preparation – Embassy Guidelines webpage.

Translation Requirements - Follow instructions provided in Step 3 Obtaining Your Civil Documents.

Fee Payment

At your visa interview you must pay the DV lottery fee. Learn more about Fees. You should make arrangements to have payment available before your interview date and time the following instructions of the U.S. embassy or consulate where you will be interviewed. Other fees an applicant can expect include medical exam fees, as an example.

How to Contact Kentucky Consular Center

If you need to contact the Kentucky Consular Center (KCC) you must always refer to your name and case number exactly as they appear on your original Selectee Letter. Your case number should be clearly written in the upper right hand corner of ALL documents and correspondence sent to the KCC.

The KCC telephone number is 606-526-7500 (7:30am until 4:00pm EST), or send an E-mail inquiry to KCCDV@state.gov
