Nigeria DV LotteryNigeria is one of the countries in the Africa region and people born here are allowed to participate in the DV lottery. Those who want to participate in this USA green card lottery visa program must have the required education or work experience as per the DV lottery instructions. Winning a DV Lottery doesn't guarantee that you will be issued with an American Immigrant visa, it will only give you a chance to apply for the American immigrant visa by paying the non refundable visa fees. As a winner at the interview you must proof your eligibility to the consular officer to get the visa. Normally Nigerian people must have successfully finished 12 years of education including primary and secondary education equivalent to USA high school certificate. A person can apply only one entry (whether he applies or agent or someone else applies), if more than one entry is submitted with a person's name as primary applicant, all entries will be rejected without notice. Married person must include spouse and all the unmarried children who are under the age of 21, failure to do so will disqualify from the program. Winners will need a sponsor's support from a US citizen or US LPR holder. Winners who are already living in the USA legally can contact the USCIS to change their current status to LPR status, if they can do it before 30th September. The winner must pay the non-refundable visa fees and the diversity processing fee on the date of their interview to the US Embassy only. Winners will be notified by postal mail only, between the months of May and July. No visas will be issued after 30th September for that fiscal year program. Be warned if you get any notification by Emil, phone or by fax, double check them. And don't send any money by bank draft or any money transfer service. For the DV Lottery 2011 nearly 6,000 Nigerians were notified as winners and were asked to proceed with the winning. In total 100,600 people were selected as winners all over the world for the DV 2011 Green card lottery program. Nigerian DV lottery Winners name list will not be available anywhere. The US Embassy or the Consulates also can't provide the names of the dv lottery winners. DV 2011 winners who are selected by the computer random draw were notified from may till July in 2010. Issuing of the visas will start in October 2010 and will end in 30th September 2010. DV lottery Visas were issued to Nigeria in the past as 1995 2,408 If you are a DV Lottery winner make all your certificates ready and wait for the interview. Rescheduling the interview date will reduce the chance of getting a visa as fewer visas available and more winners are there. If you don't know how to fill the forms get assistance from true consultants or lawyers and don't forget to fill their names and address as who has assisted you in the filling of the form. DV 2009 program was officially closed on 30th September 2009 and no one can benefit from the winning after this date.

For example, applicants can use 3 passing scores from a WAEC exam from 2002 and 2 passing scores from a NECO exam in 2003 that will qualify for the program. However, each of the 5 passing scores MUST be in different subjects.
