The Law Offices of Alice Antonovsky, PLLC takes pride in helping its clients legalize their status in the United States, apply for the right kind of visa and keep their families together through the most suitable application method.
How to Apply For The
Green Card Lottery Program
Commonly known as the Green Card Lottery, the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program allows individuals from eligible countries to apply for U.S. Permanent Residence. These countries are selected because of the low number of immigrants residing in the U.S. from these locations.
Every year, 50,000 Green Cards are granted through the lottery process. Selected applicants are allowed to legally live and work in the United States, along with their direct family members. The Department of State sets a deadline and provides all DV Lottery instructions, so applicants can complete their applications for free online.
Citizens of the following countries can not apply for the Green Card Lottery: Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, China (mainland-born), Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Haití, India, Jamaica, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, South Korea, United Kingdom (except Northern Ireland) and its dependent territories, and Vietnam.
To check for further eligibility requirements, schedule a consultation with Immigration Lawyer Alice Antonovsky.

You do not need a lawyer to enter the diversity visa lottery program. However, you can seek legal advice to address all your concerns, confirm application due dates, and, if you get selected, be prepared for a successful interview. An experienced immigration lawyer can make the process easier to understand and less stressful.
As an illegal immigrant, I hired Alice Antonovsky to help me fix my migratory situation. I had followed some bad advice in the past and really wanted to come clean with immigration authorities. Ms. Antonovsky was very helpful and helped me understand there was still a chance for my family to stay together. Thank you!

I escaped a violent past from a very unstable family a few years ago. Coming to the United States was my survival option. Being here, I met people who helped me out in different ways. They advised me to get a professional assessment on my immigration situation. Luckily, I went to Alice for help and she did not disappoint. I can absolutely recommend her legal services.
