Nigeria Ineligible For US DV-2015



Nigeria will not be eligible to partake in the 2015 diversity visa lottery to be commenced later this year.

Those born in any territory that has sent more than 50,000 immigrants to the United States in the previous five years are not eligible to receive a diversity visa


The term 50,000 "immigrants" refers only to people who immigrated via the family-sponsored, employment, or immediate relatives of U.S. citizen categories, and does not include other categories such as refugees, asylum seekers, NACARA beneficiaries, or previous diversity immigrants.

First time Nigeria is ineligible since the commencement of the DV programme
