Once selected in the Diversity Visa Lottery, how long does an individual have to complete consular processing?

  1. One year

  2. Two years

  3. Five years

  4. No specific time limit

The correct answer is: No specific time limit

Individuals selected in the Diversity Visa Lottery do not have a specific time limit for completing consular processing. After being selected, there is a window of time during which they must process their application, typically within the fiscal year allotted for that lottery selection. However, there is no explicit deadline that mandates completion beyond that time frame. This flexibility allows individuals to gather necessary documentation and prepare for their interviews without the pressure of a strict deadline. Thus, those who are selected can take the time needed to ensure they meet all requirements for their visa application.
