Justification for Non-Substantive Change Request


Electronic Diversity Visa Entry Form

OMB Number 1405-0153


The Electronic Diversity Visa Lottery (EDV) Entry Form is the first step in the Diversity Visa process. The EDV Entry Form is used to collect specific information required of aliens entering the Diversity Visa lottery to obtain a diversity immigrant visa. The Department uses the information provided on the entry form to contact the Diversity Visa winners, and provide them with information on the next steps of the visa application process.

The Department of State wishes to make two non-substantive changes to EDV Entry Form:

  1. On Question 13, a new “Enter Spouse Information” checkbox will be added under the “Legally Separated” marital status option.



  1. The “No Last/Family Name” checkbox will be removed. Clarifying language will be added to advise applicants they may need to move their First Name or Middle Name to the Last/Family Name box. The validation message will read: “You must provide a last/family name. ‘NLN’ and ‘NLU’ are not accepted. You may need to move First Name or Middle Name to the Last/Family Name.”
