Eligiblity Requirements for Diversity Visa Applicants 
 
As a reminder, the principal applicant of each Diveristy Visa Case must meet the following two criteria in order to 
qualify for visa issuance. 
 
Requirement #1: Individuals born in countries whose natives qualify may be eligible to enter. Most DV applicants will 
qualify based on a “Foreign State of Charability” that is the same as their country of birth. You may qualify with a 
different Foreign State of Chargability of if you meet one of the criteria below: 

Was your spouse born in a country whose natives are eligible? If yes, you can claim your
spouse’s country of birth—provided that both you and your spouse are named on the selected entry, are issued 
diversity visas, and enter the United States simultaneously.

Were you born in a country whose natives are ineligible, but in which neither of your parents was born or legally 
resident at the time of your birth? If yes, you may claim the country of birth of one of your parents if it is a 
country whose natives are eligible for the DV program. 
If you chose a “Foreign State of Chargability” to which you are not eligible, your application will be disqualified 
(for example, you were born in Iran and chose Turkey). It is not possible to correct your Foreign State of Charability 
after registering for the DV lottery. 
Requirement #2: In addition, to meet the education/work experience requirement of the DV
program, you must have either:

a high school education or its equivalent, defined as successful completion of a 12-year course of elementary and 
secondary education 
o For Turkish applicants, a general high school degree (genel liseler) or vocational high school degree 
(meslek lisesi) is considered qualifying education. Technical school degrees (mesleki egitim merkezleri 
tarafindan verilen ustalık / çıraklık belgeleri) are not considered qualifying education. 
o For Iranian applicants, a theory-based high school degree ( رظن
ی
) is considered qualifying education.
Iranian applicants who attended theory-based high school should have also completed the pre-university 
year (هاگشناد
