2025 Green Card Lottery Guide: Diversity Visa Program Explained The United States Diversity Immigrant Visa Program, commonly known as the Green Card Lottery, is an annual program that provides a set number of immigrant visas (green cards) to individuals from countries with low immigration rates to the U.S. What is the Green Card Lottery? The Green Card Lottery is administered by the U.S. Department of State. Its primary goal is to increase the diversity of immigrants in the United States. The program offers 55,000 immigrant visas each year to applicants from countries that have sent less than 50,000 immigrants to the U.S. in the past five years. Eligibility Requirements There are two main eligibility criteria for the Green Card Lottery: 1. Country of Birth: * Applicants must have been born in an eligible country.
