The Diversity Visa Lottery Program is one of the most popular and easiest ways to immigrate to the United States and receive a U.S. Permanent Resident Green Card. It only has two key requirements to participate: be born in an eligible country and have at least a high school education or two years of full-time paid work experience in an eligible occupation.

The lawsuit comes as thousands of 2021 diversity visa winners fear they will lose a possibly once-in-a-lifetime chance to build a life in America due to the US’s refusal to process their time-limited visa applications
In a statement published July 7 on Twitter, a lawyer representing the plaintiffs announced the lawsuit, asserting that the complaint had been filed on behalf of more than 24,000 people based in 141 different countries.
