Important Update: Diversity Visa (DV) Program Suspension

Effective immediately, the Department of State has paused all visa issuances to diversity immigrant visa applicants.

Diversity visa applicants may submit visa applications and attend interviews, and the Department will continue to schedule applicants for appointments, but no DVs will be issued. Existing diversity visa appointments generally will not be rescheduled or cancelled. The Department is committed to keeping applicants informed and will provide updates as soon as more information becomes available.
