*Persons born in the areas administered prior to June 1967 by Israel, Jordan, Syria, and Egypt are
chargeable, respectively, to Israel, Jordan, Syria, and Egypt.  Persons born in the Gaza Strip are chargeable to Egypt; persons born in the West Bank are chargeable to Jordan; persons born in the Golan Heights are chargeable to Syria. 

** Macau S.A.R. (Europe region, chargeable to Portugal) and Taiwan (Asia region) do qualify and are listed. For the purposes of the diversity program only, persons born in Macau S.A.R. derive eligibility from Portugal. 

***Persons born in the Habomai Islands, Shikotan, Kunashiri, and Etorofu are chargeable to Japan.  Persons born in Southern Sakhalin are chargeable to Russia.   

Spouse:  If you are legally married, you must list your spouse regardless of whether he/she lives with you or intends to immigrate to the United States.  You must list your spouse even if you currently are separated from him/her unless you are legally separated.  Legal separation is anarrangement when a couple remains married but lives apart, following a court order.  If you and your spouse are legally separated, your spouse will not be able to immigrate with you through the Diversity Visa program.  You will not be penalized if you choose to enter the name of a spouse from whom you are legally separated.  If you are not legally separated by a court order, you must include your spouse even if you plan to be divorced before you apply for the Diversity Visa or your spouse does not intend to immigrate. Failure to list your eligible spouse or listing someone who is not yourspouse will make you ineligible for a DV.  If you are not married at the time of entry but plan on getting married in the future, do not list a spouse on your entry form, as this would make you ineligible for aDV.  If you are divorced or your spouse is deceased, you do not have to list your former spouse.   

The only exception to this requirement is if your spouse is already a U.S. citizen or U.S.Lawful Permanent Resident.  If your spouse is a U.S. citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident, do not list him/her in your entry.  A spouse who is already a U.S. citizen or a Lawful Permanent Resident will not require or be issued a DV.  Therefore, if you select “married and my spouse IS a U.S. citizen or U.S.LPR” on your entry, you will not be able to include further information on your spouse.

Children:  You must list ALL your living children who are unmarried and under 21 years of age at the time of your initial DV entry, whether they are your natural children, your step children (even if you are now divorced from that child’s parent), your spouse’s children, or children you have formally adopted in accordance with the applicable  laws.  List all children under 21 years of age at the time of your electronic entry, even if they no longer reside with you or you do not intend for them to immigrate under the DV program.  You are not required to list children who are already U.S. citizens or Lawful Permanent Residents, though you will not be penalized if you do include them.   

Parents and siblings of the entrant are ineligible to receive DV visas as dependents, and you should not include them in your entry.   

 If you list family members on your entry, they are not required to apply for a visa or to immigrate or travel with you.  However, if you fail to include an eligible dependent on your original entry or list someone who is not your dependent, you will be ineligible for a DV, and your spouse and children willbe ineligible for derivative DVs.  This only applies to those who were family members at the time the entry was submitted, not those acquired at a later date.  Your spouse, if eligible to enter, may still submit a separate entry even though he or she is listed on your entry, and both entries must include details about all dependents in your family.
