Why Thousands are Disqualified in the DV Lottery Every Year

The US Department of State automatically disqualifies over 30% of Diversity Visa applications before the lottery draw due to non-compliant digital photographs.

Common reasons for disqualification include incorrect 600x600 pixel dimensions, file size exceeding 240 KB, shadows on the background, wearing glasses, or using a photo older than 6 months.
