- The best DV lottery information to get your greencard!
A few days ago I had posted a video with some speculation that the number of entries in DV2025 was looking to be lower than last year. Now that the entry period is over I wanted to update you all about that.
Also I show in this video how what your chance of random selection is - meaning how many entries are there for the number of people selected.
Please ask questions at my blog:

Let them copy you but we all know your undisputed when it comes to dv lottery info. to be honest i understand more in details about dv lottery from your channel. well done and GODBLESS you, much love from TANZANIA
Thanks alot
Good morning from Columbus Simon, thank you for the guidance. I arrived one month ago, got 3 jobs and living the American dream. I’m also going to start my medical residency in NY next year. Tell Marek if he’s ever in Jamaica Hospital in Queens, I’ll give him a free checkup too.
Haha - I'll be sure to tell him that! Best of luck!
Yeah, the chance of selection is very low, but it doesn't mean to stop trying. I believe there is something else beyond the maths. Anyway, you've done good job.
I applied one,and I pray to God to be a lucky one.
May God open ways for me
Thank you sir
I remember stories of people applying in the 90's when the lottery started when no one knew about it. You had to mail in your application but it was super easy to get selected then as in every third person got selected 😄
Yep, my brother and several friends got greencards that way.
@@BritSimonhello Mr brit Simon please I need your WhatsApp number?
Awesome 👌
Simon is not only a DV Guru, but also a Mathematician Guru 🥰🥰
Keep up the good work Sir 👍👍
Yep, he is a database specialist.
@simon The number of entries stated in the visa bulletins is for ONLY QUALIFIED entries. In other words, actual total entries will be much higher since quiet a number of entries are always disqualified.
It's simply badly worded. This is entries.
Great info Brit. To thankyou
Great to u
Thanks
Good morning sir
Great
🎉🎉
Would be cool to see how many that apply for the lottery from Sweden. Around 130 people get selected I think where as around 50-70 of these get the VISA.
You can see historical entries in the link in the description. THere were 2698 entries in that low entry year DV2021.
Such a delight to see that face and hear that voice after 2 years in the US, after the battle for DV-2020 was won for us. Britsimon we wouldn't have done without you. Thank you! People all over the world who are interested in winning DV Visas, this is the guy to follow. Love from Washington.
Thank you for the lovely message. I hope all is well!
Heya Simon,
A quick question! As the UK can take part this year for the first time since the lottery began - would chances alter or diminish?
There are more people that can enter within EU region, but the quota for the EU will have increased slightly.
I will win l can feel it this year❤❤❤
We all feel it😂😂
Watching from Oceania Australia 1600 Says IAM that Iam Amen and amen
Hi Simon, useful info as always... On another video of yours I asked if there is a way of going over the probability of winning selection for a couple based on region and Vs odds over entering over multiple years. Any video on this would be really awesome. A dissection of the math would be gratefully appreciated, I used chat-gpt to do most of it for me lol but might be useful to the broader public knowing the increased odds
Something to be aware of is that regardless of how many years you enter, your chances remain mostly similar. There's no preference of previous entrants versus new entrants.
Imagine flipping a coin 20 times where you get 13 heads and 7 tails. You would be mistaken to think that you have a better chance of getting heads again. It's random. Past random data should not be relied upon to forecast future events.
Being a couple doubles your chances, but in the grand scheme of things, 2 pebbles amongst 5,999,998 other pebbles still does not produce a huge advantage, but an advantage nonetheless.
Good luck, Peter!
@@viorel- thanks for the detailed response. I take it that the chance of winning each year is completely memoryless however wouldn't you increase your lifetime odds of winning if you entered every single year? Would the math look like 1-(probability of not winning) to the power of (years entered)? So it's quite significant
@@raineypeter Oh yeah, I guess there is an increase in chaces in the sense that if you only entered once your chances are very low compared to entering every year, because of your anual entries. But for each DV year, your chances are the same from one year to the next (unless the US government make changes to who qualifies and who doesn't and less people are able to apply or be selected).
@@viorel- ah okay thanks yes I think that we are both on the same page now. I checked the math over 5 years for entering as a couple in Oceania and it looked incredibly good. So I was wondering if my math was off or not (20.09% chance of 1 person in a couple winning within five years entered)
If a couple each entered for OC region for 5 years, I would imagine the chances one would be selected is higher than the 20%. Of course that can change as we can see the example of DV2024 where Fiji just got a massive increase in selectees - so the number of entries must be changing there.
Sir BritSimon, how do they do filtering in a course of remove applicants who do not fall with requirements. Please educate us on that
There are various methods. They use photo recognition technology, data searches and so on. They are looking to remove duplicate entries, fraudulent entries and so on.
Hi Simon, I just came across your video today. I found out about the dv program 2 days ago and I have some questions. Not sure if you have already answered them in other videos. How does it work regarding finances. If selected will I need to already have secured a job in America prior to applying for the program, or will I be given a time frame in which to do so or to prove financial independence? Also how soon would I need to move if successful?
It is a lottery, anyone can enter.
At the interview they consider your ability to avoid becoming a public charge. Having good job prospects can help, or having savings or someone in the USA willing to help.
When you get the approval you get a one time use immigrant visa, and that has a 6 month expiry date to enter by then, but of course, once you enter you are free to stay or leave.
No need to overthink it.
Hi BritSimon,I have a question, what does it mean when you press the resume button and the system tells you that the information submitted has not been accepted because it matches a previous entry in our records.Individuals may only submit one entry per dv period.Duplicate entries will not be accepted
After submission of your entry, quit the browser don't press the resume button or the back button because it will attempt to submit another entry again by default.
It's not a problem. It is simply catching the potential problem of duplicated entries, but it is caught before any damage is done.
In Oceania area what's considered the low case number and what's the hight case number?.
OC1 is the lowest number. In DV2024 case numbers have been reported up to OC49XX, but numbers above 2000 are somewhat high and numbers above 3000 are very risky.
Thank you always for all vital informations on your channel.
If I may ask.. I'm a Lottery 2024 winner. I indicated that my derivatives ( child and spouse)are not relocating with me to the US on my ds 260. Will I still be required to provide marriage certificate at the time of interview if my case goes current?
You should assume you will be asked for that, yes.
Hi Simon. How many times a year they do the drawn? I only check 1 time around May thats it.
There are some years where there is a second draw. It only happens when there is a low number of selectees. The last time it happened was DV2018.
@@BritSimon Thank you. So I will keep eyes on your channel. Plz keep update. Thank again.
👍

Hi Brit i my academic documents have 2 names but my passport number has 3 names if iam selected will those 3 names on my ID and academic documents be a problem ?
No
من یک ایرانی هستم،روزهای بزرگ وشاد براتون ارزو دارم 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Good evening Mr Simon , I'm Kakooza Amos from Uganda Kampala city here, I'm asking about how do they select,
Random selection.
Hi Brit, my academic documents have 3 names, i used all the 3 names during my entry, but my passport has 2 names. How do i go about this, can i just get an affidavit or
Not a problem.
Thanks
I try to check my status
But when I enterd my comfamation code. It said wrong comfamation code.
What should I do
Thanks the video ! Do we have any explanation on the high CN for DV2024?
There are more selectees and a higher holes rate - although it is not 100% consistent between regions.
@@BritSimon still doesn't make any sense to me, but I guess they have their reasons. EU46K here 🙄
Thank you for your answer
@@BritSimon is the CN generated on the first draw, or after photo disqualification 2nd pass?
آقاسایمون من ثبت نام کردم و اخر ثبت نامم کموفق بود روی یک دکمه زدم در اخر اومد ناقص امکان داره ثبت ثبت نام ناممم
Hello Simon 👋 what is police clearance? I have not been arrested or broken any law do I need police clearance for the interview
As part of the instructions you will find they need police certificates from each country you lived in for more than 12 months.
Hello Simon, is it true that if you use the same device to apply for different people those entries can be cancelled?
That is not normal.
In dv2021, I applied using a computer in an Internet cafe ad I was selected. That same computer was used by 100 others to apply.
Hi, please even me I want to start but don't know what to do
Any sign on how many Brits applied this year? It really looks like it snuck under the radar here in Uk! I’m staying optimistic
No data on that. We won't know anything until we get selectee numbers in July
What are the chances of selection of entrants located in the Caribbean?
Hello,britis I want to ask you about my case number 66000 from morocco for this year DV24 what do you think? Can I receive an appointment message?
I lost hope because I did not see numbers bigger than my number in Morocco
We don't have the data yet. Wait until January
Hi Simon is it true that if your confirmation number has ten letters and six number you will be selected
No - that is a silly rumor.
Hi Simon. Please tell me when will the draw take place? in which month ? like when does the computer choose the winners please?
I explain that in the video - December or January.
can you search job right after entering US after winning in dv lottery?
After you receive social security number .... One to two weeks
Hi Dr. Simon,
I tried to comment on your blog but it doesn't show up for some reason. I would really appreciate if you could answer my questions!
1. What are your thoughts on the case number 2024OC4043 based on the current VB?
2. Is there anything I should prepare right now after completing the DS-260, such as paying for the $330 fee? To give some background, I am a student on F-1 visa until May 2024, upon my graduation. I will have a year of OPT after that assuming I find a job.
Thank you!
There is no chance of an interview with such a high OC number, unless COVID 2.0 hits worldwide again forcing most embassies to shutdown.
Does this year have the highest applicant number compared to last year?
DV2024 has very high case numbers.
🤞🤞🤞🎉
What happened with the 2024 dv lottery?
It's running now.
