DIVERSITY IMMIGRANT VISA PROGRAM
The "Green Card Lottery"

WIN A "GREEN CARD"

PERMANENT RESIDENCE TO THE USA

The Law Offices of David D. Murray can assist you in registering you and your family in the
next U.S. Diversity Immigrant Visa Program, sometimes called the "DV-Lottery Program",
or the "Green Card Lottery".

Registering both a husband and a wife as Principle Applicants in the "Green Card Lottery"
can double your chances of winning Permanent Residence to the United States of America!

A spouse and children under age 21 will all receive derivative eligibility to apply for
U.S. Permanent Residence ("Green Card") if a Principal Applicant is successful in the
Green Card Lottery.

If you don't enter the "Green Card Lottery", you can't win.

See below to see if you qualify! . . . . . _______________________________________________________________________________

DIVERSITY IMMIGRANT VISA PROGRAM
- - - What is it . . . .?

The Diversity Visa Program, sometimes called the DV-Lottery or "Green Card Lottery", is administered on an annual basis by the U.S. Department of State and conducted under the terms of Section 203(c) of the Immigration & Nationality Act (INA). The INA was amended in 1990 to provide
for a new class of immigrants known as "diversity immigrants" (DV immigrants). You may qualify!

The INA makes available 50,000 permanent resident visas ("Green Cards") each year to persons
from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States.

The DV-Lottery Program makes U.S. Permanent Resident visas available to persons meeting
the simple, but strictly applied, procedural and eligibility requirements.
Successful applicants for Green Card Lottery Visas are chosen by a computer-generated random lottery drawing.

WHO QUALIFIES FOR THE DV-LOTTERY?

THE COUNTRY OF YOUR BIRTH . . . .
IS WHAT QUALIFIES YOU FOR THE DV-LOTTERY

Persons born in the following countries are not eligible to apply for the DV-Lottery . . . . .
all other countries qualify:

Natives of the following countries are not eligible to apply for DV Lotter Registration,
because their country sent a total of more than 50,000 immigrants to the United States over the previous five years:

BRAZIL, CANADA, CHINA (mainland-born), COLOMBIA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC,
EL SALVADOR, HAITI, INDIA, JAMAICA, MEXICO, PAKISTAN, PHILIPPINES, PERU, POLAND, RUSSIA, SOUTH KOREA, UNITED KINGDOM (except Northern Ireland) and its dependent territories, and VIETNAM.

PERSONS BORN IN ALL OTHER COUNTRIES QUALIFY FOR THE DV-LOTTERY. IF YOU WERE NOT BORN IN ONE OF THESE COUNTRIES, YOU QUALIFIY TO ENTER THE DV-LOTTERY.

________________________________________________________________________________

NOTE:

* Persons born in Hong Kong SAR, Macao SAR and Taiwan are eligible
to apply for the DV-Lottery, and are not included in the Mainland China restriction.
_______________________________________________________________________________

* Remember, it is the country where you were born that qualifies you, not your country
of present citizenship.
_______________________________________________________________________________

* If a person was born in a country whose natives are not eligible, but neither of his/her
parents was born there or resided there at the time of his/her birth, such person may claim
nativity in one of the parents' country of birth if it is a country whose natives qualify for the
DV-Lottery program.
_______________________________________________________________________________

* Persons born in the non-qualifying countries are not eligible because each of these
countries sent a total of more than 50,000 immigrants to the U.S. in the previous five years.

_______________________________________________________________________________

In addition to being born in a qualifying country, there
are two other ways a person may qualify for the DV-Lottery:

One: If a person was born in a country that is not eligible, but his/her spouse was born in a country
whose natives are eligible, if the qualifying spouse wins the Lottery, the non-qualifying person can
claim the qualifying spouse's country of birth if both the applicant and the spouse are issued permanent residence visas and enter the U.S. at the same time. However, a spouse from a non-qualifying country cannot file a separate Principle Application for DV-Lottery registration.

Two: If a person was born in a country whose natives are not eligible, but neither of his/her parents
was born there or resided there at the time of his/her birth, such person may claim nativity in one of
the parents' country of birth if it is a country whose natives qualify.

_______________________________________________________________________________

Applicants must meet either the education
or training requirement of the DV program . . .

While there is no age limitation for registering a Principle Applicant for the
DV-Lottery Program, an applicant must have either a high school education
or its equivalent, defined as successful completion of a 12-year course of
elementary and secondary education;

. . . . or . . .

Two years of work experience within the past five years in an occupation
requiring at least two years of training or experience to perform.

If the applicant cannot meet these minimum requirements, he or she should
not submit an entry to the DV-Lottery program.

Why use our law firm to prepare and file
your DV-Lottery Registration? . . . . it is simple.

THE LAW OFFICES OF DAVID D. MURRAY
have been helping people achieve their US immigration goals since 1978.


We have the experience and expertise to help you avoid the many problems that can be
encountered in the application process. While the registration process may seem easy
and straight forward, there are small details that if not followed, might result in the denial
of your permanent residence application, even if you win the Lottery!

DV-Lottery results are mailed by post to successful applicants. Our clients receive notification
of winning directly at our office, avoiding lost mail, or non-delivery if the Applicant changes
addresses during the application process and before notification, or if the mail in your country is
unreliable or slow. You can always notify our law firm to change your mailing or Email address,
whereas the system does not allow for updating this information with the U.S. government once
your registration filed. Avoid lost notifications by hiring our law firm.

Our Professional help assures that your application will meet all of the
requirements of the DV-Lottery and that you will be promptly notified
upon winning, even if you change your residence address, Email address,
or if you have difficulty with the postal service in your country of residence.

Our firm guarantees that your DV-Lottery Program registration will be prepared and filed according
to the requirements of the U.S. government's regulations, giving you the best possible chance for success.
