DV-2010 Green Card Lottery Online Status Check is Now Open
DV-2010 green card lottery status check is now available online at the E-DV website.
From now until June 30, 2010, DV-2010 green card lottery applicants can check the status of their entry through the E-DV website. You will need the confirmation page that you received when you entered the lottery during the last entry period (October 2, 2008 to December 1, 2008). You will be asked to provide your entrant's confirmation number, last name/family name, and year of birth in order to check the entrant status online.
To find out whether or not your DV-2010 green card lottery entry was selected, go to the E-DV website at http://www.dvlottery.state.gov/ESC/.


The server is soo busy that it is almost impossible to check the status of my application. But lets hope i win
The server is too busy, I am unable to check…sobs!
Why can’t I enter this website?Is the server too busy?
I finally managed to log in and got as far as being asked to input a code from a CAPTCHA?? image. I wonder if the server overload causes a delay which alters the validity of the code after a certain time has elapsed. Finally I was given a server error message and told to come back later.
Oh MG,is everyone checking their status? They making the sever so bussy.
if anyone manages to get past the captcha and onto a result instead of “system error. please try again later”, please let us all know
guess it will take some time before the server copes with the overload
i dont know what is wrong the whole world want to go to america the server is just down what is wrong pls help i need to check my own
Server is too busy i got that message over and over
whatta hell!!??
why this f*kin server is so busy?
“system error. please try again later”, hummm..are they trying to tell us that we haven’t been selected??? Cause honestly, we can not all be stuck on the same CAPTCHA page.
I couldn’t get to the site. It is so busy. I hope it will be available soon
No luck past the captcha. Been like this since the past 4 hours.
This is really frustrating…. They should have some respect for people who have been waiting for so long for the results…. It is not that difficult to make the results available on a decent capacity server…
Guys u all did not recieve postal mail? that’s why u do want to check status ? may be we’ all did not win anything
I don’t know what’s wrong. I couldn’t able to check my status.Pls let me know, is it happening all over the world or only Burma.
It’s probably happening everywhere…I’m in New York and can’t check either, the site times out.
ERROR MESSAGE KEEPS COMING UP
Hello from Germany. I am trying already for 6 hours, but always get the system error message. I hope that the system is fixed soon. Please let us know if anybody is successful with the entrant status check. Thx!
Is anyone can check or not????????
UKRAINE also cannot check status… maybe system is not working or been hacked?
Thanks Regit!

@ Mrb: I think this site is just not updated yet. But maybe you are right and we have to wait until the responsible IT person arrives at the office this morning. Ha!
Try Mozilla firefox. ive just tried on mozilla it gave me answer :
Based on the information provided, the Entry HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED for further processing for the 2010 Electronic Diversity Visa program.
Please verify that you have entered all information correctly. You may re-check the Entry status by clicking on the Return to Entrant Status Check Main Page link below.
Yes, it works now. Pretty fast.
Unfortunately, I was not selected
SORRY THAT MY ENTRY HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED

THANK GOD , B/C ALL IS WORKING FOR MY GOOD. YET TO CHECK……. SERVER TOO CONGESTED.STILL HOPEFUL I GET SELECTED.THANKS TO ALL

Has anybody won?
“Based on the information provided, the Entry HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED for further processing for the 2010 Electronic Diversity Visa program.”

he comes this message:
Based on the information provided, the Entry HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED for further processing for the 2010 Electronic Diversity Visa program.
Please verify that you have entered all information correctly. You may re-check the Entry status by clicking on the Return to Entrant Status Check Main Page link below.
(-_-)
not selected neither….
Based on the information provided, the Entry HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED for further processing for the 2010 Electronic Diversity Visa program. WHAT IS MEAN TAHT
ooh ,i have checked but i have not believed am not going to america . will try this year
if it said Has Not been selected that’s mean it’s over for me i have to try this year ?
or i have to keep checking my status ?
My sister was notified by mail and was sent instructions and information on fees. But when I cheked her status online, it says- HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED. Is that possible?
If you get “HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED” does that mean it will now never be selected?
I understand they actually select about 90,000 i.e. it is oversubscribed and that even if you do get “selected” you may be well down the list and never get a visa.
The positive(?)things about having this online status check are:
1) if the online check shows you are selected you are forewarned should any postal irregularities occur re delivery of the official letter.
2) if the news you have not been selected is definitive you can at least move on or try again this year.
God knows…plz i want to win….lets check
hi, i have been writing my info all day. And when i click on next will load and take me back to the same page with my information still there.why is that!
if you guys watch carefully…the status check is woefully wrong. try inputing say..a wrong date of birth year in there with an incorrect surname. leave the confirmation number intact. it will still send the not selected message.
Question: isn’t the year and last name supposed to be used in the validation?
is it possible to have any information by sending an email them? i just simply dont have this number and have no idea if i did it form right.
Adam, I think I’m having the same problem that you are having. I enter all the information and hit next, but it’s still the same page with no further instructions or anything at all. Does anyone else have the same problem?
@seth
@adam
same problem
been trying all day!!
did it workout for u guys afterall ???
entry HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED…
so is that it? or is there a chance a visa might become available to me yet?? I really hope so!
I tried with Google Chrome browser and it didn’t work. I had to use Firefox to get passed the initial information page (only to find out I was not selected..)
I tried 3 times already, still the same message ENTRY HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED, then I tried my sister’s. I got her notification letter 3 weeks ago and it still says ENTRY HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED
Ha anyone receive a POSSITIVE ENTRY, just to make sure cos I’m sure that I’m doing everything right. Why would the server say Entry not selected when my sister was selected. I need to be sure cos I moved and just started getting mail
ANYone SELECTED here??? Just wonder
I will kiss the land of the USA if I win .
I recieved a letter in the mail in June telling me i HAD been selected – i checked online last night and was shown id NOT BEEN SELECTED… i called the KCC to ask whats going on and they told me i had been selected and that they were having problems with their status checker – leave it till Monday people…. (so i was told)
oh, another thing, GOOGLE CHROME does not work – use FIREFOX instead – ive not yet tried it with Internet Explorer but know for a fact it’ll work in Firefox 3.5 – of course the servers would also show as being busy – what do you expect with 9 million people checking there status
Thank you Kevin for this information!!
Does anybody know the phone number of KCC?
Marina, KCC’s phone number is listed under Visa Services on the How to Contact Us page on travel.state.gov.
Thank you, Jennifer.
wooo..hahaha I got selected…oooohahahah
Hello, I have lost my confirmation number, is there a possibility to find it again? If somebody knows please write, thank you.
not selected =(
Does “YOUR ENTRY HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED” and “YOUR ENTRY WAS NOT SELECTED” the same thing? If one’s entry “HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED”, it means there’s the chance or possibility that it might be SELECTED a little bit later, may be in a few days or weeks time? Some clarifications, please!!!
I used my friend’s mail address for the 2010 dv. 3 weeks ago he called and told me about the good news that i was selected. Then i asked him to send me the package, in the process of mailing the package lost before reached my place.
