DOS Notice of Diversity Visa Program for Fiscal Year 2026

On October 31, 2024, DOS published a notice with a correction to Public Notice 12558 published in the Federal Register on October 1, 2024. The original notice contained an error on the start and end dates for the DV-2026 entry period. (89 FR 86904, 10/31/24)

In the public notice published on October 1, 2024, 89 FR 79997, page 79998 of the Entry Period paragraph of SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section lists October 4, 2023, as the start date and November 7, 2023, as the end date of the DV–2026 entry period. These dates are incorrect. The entry period for the DV–2026 Program begins on October 2, 2024, and ends on November 7, 2024.
