DV 2012 Results

DV 2012 Results were announced on 01st May 2011 as usual in the internet through the American Government's official web site. But it was suddenly closed on 07/05/2012 by the US State department due to some computer programming error. In the mean time nearly 1.9 Million applicants checked their online DV-2012 results and nearly 22,000 people did found that they were selected as winners. Now these winners selection are void as per the State Department statement which stated a program error was occurred and the winners were selected from the fist 2 days of submission and not from the whole 30 days submission period. . This DV-2012 results checking facility is now available again from 15th of July 2011 onwards till June 30th 2012 after new random names selections were made from the submitted entries.

So, here by all the DV-2012 applicants must check their results once again to see whether they are selected to proceed with the winning for the 2012 fiscal year visa lottery program. Those who are not selected for this Green card Lottery program can try their luck once again this year through the DV-2013 Green card lottery program which will also issue 50,000 American immigrant visas through the random name selection.

This kind of online results checking facility was first introduced in the DV 2010 program for the first time in the history of the American diversity visa lottery program. According to the U.S State Department people who have participated in the 2012 visa lottery can check ONLY in the online to confirm whether they are selected for further processing or not.

To check your status online, you will have to provide your confirmation number (which was given to you at the time of application submission last year) and your personal information.

If you have missed your confirmation number it won't be re issued or can't be recovered .So do not try to get it again from the KCC. Winners will not get the postal notifications from this year onwards for the American DV lottery. Postal mails, E-mails or Fax or Telephone will not be used to announce the winners. If you get any notification double check them. There is no chance to get the results like these methods.

DV-2012 Official Results.

DV Lottery that was held as DV-2012 and allowed submission of entries in the year 2010 has announced its results officially announced from July 15th 2011. Nearly 14,768,658 qualified entries were submitted from all over the world in the 30 day electronic application form submission period from October 5, 2010, till November 3, 2010. The online DV Lottery application form used to be called as E-DV entry officially. From these entries nearly 100,021 people were selected as winners and their results are available in the online web site. Out of these 100,021 selected winners of DV 2012, only 50,000 people will get their American Immigrant visas if they meet the eligibility.

The DV-2012 will close once the 50,000 visas are issued or will close on 30th September 2012. After this date no one can benefit from their DV-2012 winning. They can try the next coming visa lottery program.

Selected winners will not be issued with the visas directly. But they will have to go for the interview according to their case numbers, must pay their non refundable visa fees, and proof their eligibility to get those visas. Like wise those selected winners in the United States must contact the USCIS office to make adjustment to their status only when their case numbers are current for that month.
