2021 Diversity Visa program opens tonight



KATHMANDU: The application period for the 2021 Diversity Visa (DV) program is opening at 9:45 pm tonight.

The application period closes at 10:45 pm on November 5, 2019, according to the US Embassy in Kathmandu.

No charges will be applied to fill up the application form.

The U.S. Embassy said it recommends applicants to apply on their own; consultants are strictly prohibited.

It has, however, said that the applicants can use the assistance of their family members, friends or a trusted person.

It has also said that the family details should be briefly described. However, the new policy change for the 2021 program dictates to include the details of spouse and all the unmarried children under the age of 21 to make a valid entry.

“Else, the entries will be disqualified,” information posted on the US Embassy website said.

According to the information, an applicant will have to submit only one application with a recent photo with no wear glasses and hats.

“Entries submitted with the same photo from the last DV year will be disqualified,” the information said.

Passport number, date of expiry and email ID have been made compulsory this time.
