To check your Diversity Visa (DV) Lottery status for the 2022 program, follow these steps:
- Visit the official Entrant Status Check website at the U.S. Department of State's DV program portal: https://dvprogram.state.gov/ESC/CheckStatus.aspx.
- Enter your confirmation number exactly as you received it when you applied.
- Enter your last/family name as it appears on your application.
- Provide your year of birth.
- Submit the information to see your selection status.
The DV-2022 entrants could check their status on this site until at least September 30, 2022. If you missed this window, the results are no longer available online for DV-2022
. Note that the U.S. Department of State does not send emails or letters notifying applicants of selection; you must check your status yourself online using your confirmation number
. If you lost your confirmation number, the official site provides a way to retrieve it by entering additional identifying information
. For future DV programs (such as DV-2026), the process is similar, with the status check available on the same official website during the designated period
. In summary, to check the DV-2022 lottery results, use the official Entrant Status Check website with your confirmation number and personal details before the deadline. After that, the results are no longer accessible online.
