Hello!
I'm a newbie here and got lucky to be selected among 100.000 others for the DV2008.
I have a question to the DS-230 specifically questions 10, 11 and 33 on the form and hope you can help me.
Question 10 asks for the "Permanent address in the United States where you intend to live, if known (Street address including zipcode). Include the name of a person who currently lives there.
Question 11 asks for the "Address in the United States where you want your Permanent Resident Card (GC) mailed, if different from address in item #10 (include the name of a person who currently lives there)
Question 33a asks "Do you want the Social Security Administration to assign you an SSN (and issue a card) and to answer 'yes' in 33b "Consent to disclosure: I authorize disclosure of Information from this form to the Department of Homeland Security, the SSA, such other U.S. Government agencies as may be required for the purpose of assigning me an SSN and issuing me a SSC and I authorize the SSA to share my SSN with the INS.
*ugh, too many acronyms*
Anyway, my questions are
a) Do I need to have a permanent address in the US to be eligible for the Diversity GC and if yes, do I need to be officially registered as living at said address?
b) Do I need a permanent address in the U.S. to be issued an SSN by the SSA?
If anyone can help I'd be eternally grateful.
oh and ...uhm...is a casenumber with lots of zeros after the AreaLetters good or bad?
