For the closest dates of lottery (about October) - what is the name of the lottery? (DV-2014, DV-2015, DV-2016)?

How long does it take to get the feedback whether I have won a green card lottery?
How can I get the response?
If not - can I know how?

Also, if I want to get the email to specific person too (such as advocate or a person I can trust) - If so, can we both get the result of winning?

Thanks :)
 
currently the DV2014 lottery is drawing to an end - processing will complete on September 30, 2014. On October 1st, processing will start for selectees (winners) of DV2015 (those who entered the lottery in late 2013). The next registration period will start in October, and that is for DV2016. DV2016 selectees will be notified in May 2015 - and the notification is through a webpage. It is best that you enter without using an advocate and that you keep all the entry information to yourself. You don't need an advocate or lawyer to complete the registration or the visa process itself.
 
How long does it take to get the feedback whether I have won a green card lottery?: Next one will be DV2016.

How long does it take to get the feedback whether I have won a green card lottery?: About 6 months from the registration closing date.

How can I get the response?: You'll use the confirmation number you get at the end of the registration to check when the results are released

Also, if I want to get the email to specific person too (such as advocate or a person I can trust) - If so, can we both get the result of winning?: Only one email address can be used on the registration form, and you better make sure to use your own email address.
 
Thanks all.
For Sm1smom answer - How long does it take to get the feedback whether I have won a green card lottery? - About 6 month ...
What that means for the next dv-lottery (2016), which starts at 2014, October?
Is that - closing date about 30/10/14 (or several days later), so the time of getting the response is about 4/2015?

Thanks :)

Results come out usually on 1 May the following year. So for DV2016, you enter in October 2014, results released 1 May 2015 (probably) and successful selectees interview between October 2015 and September 2016.
Also no-one sends you feedback, you need to remember to check and keep your entry confirmation number to do so.
When you enter please make sure you read the instructions properly first so you don't become one of the sad stories here who disqualified themselves unnecessarily. But do enter yourself and don't get anyone else to do it for you.
