There are many sites online which claim to be offering green card lottery. These sites end up asking for subscription fee from clients. I may refer to them as scam websites. Electronic Diversity Visa lottery is free of charge to any willing applicant.
The United States Government always plays their games safe; it’s a lottery based on the principle of luck. This means that not everybody who applies for the Diversity Visa Lottery qualifies. Winners are randomly selected and called or emailed to be informed of their dreams of going to USA coming true.
These applications are done online. Before you are chosen to secure a chance to this powerful state, you need to be accurate and keen on your credentials that you submit on their official portal.
It’s also advised that you go through their terms and conditions to know which kind of information they need from you and whether you are academically qualified or not.
To widen your chances of being selected, you need provide accurate and true credentials about your nationality and academic qualifications.
Academic qualifications for application
To qualify, you must have a minimum of a high school diploma reflecting the completion of a full course of study (vocation schools or equivalency degrees are not acceptable) or be a skilled worker in an occupation that requires at least two years of training or experience.
How to qualify on a single application
When applying for this chance, a clear, quality, passport size photo measuring at least 600 by 600 pixels to 1200 by 1200 pixels is king.
The first thing you need to ensure is that you get a quality photo with clear background without any shadows. To be sure to find quality passport photos, never use a smartphone to take them.
