This blog is about my immigration journey - which began in the late-1990s - from Zimbabwe to the United States of America. I am sharing my experiences with the objective of helping individuals who, similarly to me, may find the immigration process impermeable. I am not an attorney and the contents of this blog do not constitute legal advice.

2017 Green Card Lottery Deadline
The DV-2017 Lottery entrance deadline is Nov. 3 at 12:00 PM EST. Entries are free and results will be announced May 3, 2016.
The lottery is open to foreign nationals from eligible countries. Individual eligibility is determined by birth country. The entry form and application requirements are available at the U.S. Department of State's official Electronic Diversity Visa Lottery page. Importantly, remember to save your confirmation number -it is the ONLY way to check your results.
50,000 diversity visas have been allocated for the 2017 DV Lottery.
Good luck!
