The Kentucky Consular Center (KCC) has published the detailed winner statistics for the most recent Green Card Lottery in the Visa Bulletin of September 2024.
Take the chance of living in the USA and apply for the official US Green Card Lottery!
Every year, countless USA fans send in their applications for the Green Card Lottery, only to be denied in the end. Up to 40% of all applicants are disqualified each year due to formal errors.
These include, for example, photos that do not meet the formal requirements (this causes more than half of all disqualifications), incorrect information about family status, or various careless mistakes when filling out the form. Since there are many other factors that can cause premature disqualification from the lottery process, the chances of winning a Green Card decrease considerably for many "do-it-yourself" participants.
Unfortunately, the US authorities never inform the disqualified participants about their mistakes. That's why many people participate with the same application data every year, without knowing that they're depriving themselves of the chance to win again and again.
The American Dream guarantees that no client will be disqualified due to formal errors in the application process by providing professional advice from government-licensed immigration consultants. The process includes the double-checking of all documents, and an application process that has been streamlined for almost 30 years.
This ensures unique and optimal chances of winning. All winners also receive comprehensive support along the way until their Green Card is issued. An all-round carefree service that maintains your chances at all times.
This is how the winners of the Green Card Lottery DV-2025 are distributed all over the world.

Once again, the allocation of DV-2025 winners was a very tight race. This year, the country with the most Green Card Lottery winners worldwide was Uzbekistan, an impressive number of 5,564 winners. Algeria (5,526 winners) and Russia (5,519 winners) followed directly behind.
Each continent has its own contingent. Therefore, the number of participants on other continents does not influence the chances of winning for one's own continent. Europeans, for example, have very good chances of winning a Green Card – also in the most recent draw, the odds were as high as 1:45! There is a simple explanation for this:
