Verify Your 2026 DV Lottery Status with These Details

The US Department of State has confirmed that foreign nationals participating in the 2026 Diversity Visa lottery must provide three specific pieces of information to verify their status. This verification can be done through the official Electronic Diversity Visa Entrant Status Check portal, which is the designated platform for applicants to check if they have been selected for further processing towards obtaining a US Green Card.

To access their results, applicants need to complete three specific fields and pass a CAPTCHA authentication step. The Diversity Visa programme, also known as the Green Card lottery, offers up to 55,000 immigrant visas annually to nationals from countries with historically low immigration rates to the United States.

Applicants are strongly advised to use only the official portal for checking their status, avoiding third-party websites that may charge fees or provide inaccurate information.
