@win dv i find it difficult to assess your link but anyway sha,its not new to me that poland and sudan having low numbers cos south sudan is a newly eligible in DV program while sudan has already being in DV list of eligible countries.The last time we saw poland with high SELECTEES was in DV2006 with 3,416 while sudan with 805 SELECTEES.So am not suprise at the margin of the low entries or numbers of applicants receievd in DV2013 from these countries.But i think sudan is already much aware or enlighten about DV program comparing to south sudan who just got there independent last yr June or July if may be right to be more enlighten about DV program even though they were formally or under sudan at that time but still ought to have a knowledge of DV.
Hi Schoolboy, excellent points. However, have you noticed a decrease in entries from a lot of other countries? I guess some of them are not interested in the DV-Lottery anymore, especially after many years of applying and never won. In my country, there was a decrease of almost 400 for DV-13 in comparison to DV-2012.
How will the winning allocation % for Bangladesh be shared among the other countries/region since they are now ineligible? or will the winning % increase for all countries?
@win dv
1.Am not surprised by the low numbers of applicants in DV2013 comparing to DV2012.
2.In Nigeria for instant citizens that entered DV2012 were 1.36m while bangladesh 7.6m and Ghana 909,900 all the numbers of entries received in DV2012 were 19.6m with derivatives and 15m qualified for the random draw.Now if you look back to the computer glitch in May Results and the court injunction of Mr white vs DOS or the so called tears of the ex-22K,you will noticed so many people had lost confidence in DOS cos it always seems to be that DOS are not 100% sincere to there rules or themselves and don't practice what they advertise online.Some of these people today are getting tired day by day based on not have or not getting selected in years of entering DV.
The recession America is going through also is some major factors that is discouraging some people from entering DV programs cos these days we see some Mexicans and Europeans going back to there countries all because of no jobs low percentage of employment while unemployment's rates is sky rocketing.Now a bill is under debating as issue pushing to be passed by the house starting from next year 30$ to to be charge per entry and if that bill is passed,then i think the numbers of entries would decline further but it will be only for the rich nations and not or for some third world countries.But all the same it is still an illicit issue Cos 30$ might still be a huge money if converted to these third world countries to there local currencies.So my bro we will be fine without DV cos there are many more ways to enter the US if one wants to go to.Bangladesh not on this years DV might be of advantage to some Asia or newly eligible countries if the numbers entries would decline although chances could be high in some region or countries and still be low in some other region or countries also.

All of your points make sense! Some people are still questioning whether or not it was a computer glitch. In addition, people are still saying that they feel the majority of the selectees will be persons who are already in the U.S.A. Also, I've heard reports of the US economy getting better and more jobs are now available. However, I doubt I will sign up for the next DV for many reasons.
@win dv truly there was a computer glitch but it might be of manipulating of or tempered by someone which DOS doesn't want to publicize,because it would or could lead to scandals.So its just a cover up or to save themselves from or in court injunction that is why they said that it was a computer glitch.
The software being use for the random selection is called TIME LINE MACHINE and the software to detect multiples or fraud entries or photos that or did not meet up to the photo specifications or requirements is also called RED EYE PHOTO REMOVER MACHINE.You would see the words in some modern digital s camera if check very well.
The second random selection results of DV2012 in May does not represent a true or fair results?nobody knows the method or criteria DOS used for the selection.

@win dv i don't think the statement you just said about people winning would be from those living in US.Its sound believable but at the same time its pointless to enter DV programs when you already know that majority or the winners would be from those in the US.Sorry to say this,it doesn't portrait or implies any sense here.You can get selected from any part or region or countries at anytime or days of entry of DV programs.For what i know is that the software or computers that s selecting winning applicants or numbers is always programmed by software's experts or programmers to selects winnings numbers while the software design is kirit Amin.My concern is that why is it that about 8 to 11% of winners always comes from the last two and last day of the programs?its a question that needs to be ask,but when ask all you will hear is STATEMENT IS NOT TRUE but its what we see all the time of DV programs 8 to 11% winners all from the last two or last day of DV programs.

@Schooolboy, I said "the MAJORITY" selectees (not ALL) perhaps will be persons already in the USA (namely those who have visa in different categories F-1, H, J-1 etc.). Nothing surprises me or is impossible these days......
Same to u bro and to everyone in the house!
@win dv,
how do you know that? or do you have relative working with dv?
i dont blive that, lets all keep our finger cross till may 2012.
thks
@Schoolboy and newtonn, checkout all of the said winners in the thread "DV 2012 AOS Only". They are already in the USA. Other immigration forums reflect the same. Anyway, again a lot people have said this. But me personally do not think that ALL of the selectees will be persons already in the US. Yes, five months to go to confirm "entry has not been selected for further processing". Chances of winning are so low.....Not planning on signing up anymore in the future.
Have a safe holiday everyone!!
@newton, the wait is so long just to find out whether you have won or lose. They should have already implemented a system whereby people can find out their status (win or lose) sooner than six months (everyone hates this long wait), again the chances of winning is extremely low and DOS may implement a $30 registration fee commencing with DV-2014. I don't have $30 to waste.
