I didn't even know that my husband Sascha had played in the Green Card Lottery. For him, it was always clear that we were going to immigrate to the USA. I was self-employed in Germany, we had built a good life for ourselves, and were in the process of moving into a new terraced corner house - in other words, really typical German. I had already packed all my boxes when my husband called me from the commuter train. At first, I thought something bad had happened. But then he said, "We won the Green Card!" My first thought was, "Oh shit! We bought new furniture! My business is going great! I have a great job that I love! What am I going to do in America now?" But we took the chance, and it was a huge adventure!Show more Show lessMonique Menesi from Munich -
I would like to thank The American Dream very much. After several attempts I was very lucky to be selected for the Green Card. Now begins a new phase in my life.Show more Show less
I have dreamed of a life in America since I was a small child.
There I want to get to know new people, a new culture and grow personally.
This year I will move to America and start my new life there.
Many thanks dear American Dream Team.Michael K. - Ruesselsheim, Germany -
The support from The American Dream was essential, especially after the winning notification. The most important thing for me was access to the winner’s community. You can share ideas with all the other winners there: What were their experiences? What is it really like to move to the USA? Which things do you need to consider? It's also very reassuring to hear: It's all relatively easy.Show more Show lessThomas B. - Green Card winner from Bavaria -
After 7 years and 14 applications (my wife and I both participated to double the chances) it finally worked in 2018! Now we can finally arrive where our heart has been home for a long time. Many thanks to the TAD team for their always friendly and helpful support before, during and after the win. In autumn we will be heading to Texas, where we will live our American Dream! Our tip to all those who have not yet won: Believe in your dream, stick with it and don't give up!Show more Show lessBernhard & Alkestis-Nikola Z. - Vienna, Austria -
Unbelievable – We are actually holding our Green Cards in our hands! The first try was already successful. Last year on Peter’s birthday we received the winner’s notification.

We were lucky enough to win the second time we tried! From that moment on The American Dream was very helpful and supportive. Thank you very much for your friendly assistance in the past couple of months, great team! It wouldn’t have been possible without you! In July 2018 we went on our activation trip and next February we are flying over again to turn our American dream into reality.Show more Show lessUlrich, Andrea & Lena V. - Dresden, Germany -
Dear American Dream Team,Show more Show less
although my dream of emigrating to California has faded into the background, participating in the Green Card Lottery has become a small tradition. When it actually worked after 10 years, I just had to take this unique chance, because you never know what the future will bring...
Thanks a lot!Steffi M. - Hamburg, Germany -
"Don't chase your dream, run towards it." So I spontaneously applied for the Green Card Lottery and on the first try it worked. Thanks TAD for the great support and always friendly assistance. I wish everyone else good luck.Show more Show lessBettina B. - Abu Dhabi, U.A.E. -
