skyyhi 0 #4 December 30, 2003 My ex-husband was from Cuba and filed the DV Lottery paperwork for his family many times. . .yes it is real and the paperwork is not really that difficult to fill out. Just make sure you follow the directions EXACTLY. So far he has won visas for his mom and dad. . .I know he has applied for others. You are supposed to file it from your home country. . .give it a whirl. . .they run the lottery every year. . .how many visas they give per country varies every year. Good luck to you.________________________________________ Take risks not to escape life… but to prevent life from escaping. ~ A bumper sticker at the DZ FGF #6 Darcy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NZL60 0 #5 December 30, 2003 ah ok.. looked into this a while back before I got lucky and the company I worked for at the time transferred me out here.. At the time, UK citizens were not eligible for the lottery because of the numbers already here so double check that to see if it's still the case. Who said Kiwis can't fly?

skyyhi 0 #6 December 30, 2003 Actually, you are correct. . .most of the time the UK is not eligible. . .I think they do offer the lottery to UK residents every now and then but double check every year. . .________________________________________ Take risks not to escape life… but to prevent life from escaping. ~ A bumper sticker at the DZ FGF #6 Darcy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkyAnt 0 #9 December 30, 2003 This has been around for years. Certain countries are granted more DV's than others, but it has more to do with politics than any individual countrys population. You are wise to be cautious as there are a number of profiteers cashing in on the unsuspecting. The program run by the US government itself via the consul general is basically free, you may see adverts however from various agency's claiming you must go through them for the best chance at a visa and they always incur a sizable fee of some sort ie 60USD or so. This is generally crap. "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Edmund Burke (1729-1797) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelel01 1 #13 December 30, 2003 Well, how about if I move to FL?
