Judge orders diversity visa lottery reopened for 2027, covering up to 55,000 applicants
A federal judge has directed that the diversity visa lottery for 2027 be reopened, making room for as many as 55,000 applicants. The order followed a lawsuit against Secretary of State Marco Rubio over how registration for the lottery was handled. Judge Jinsook Ohta set a 30-day window for eligible applicants to submit their registrations. The ruling also comes alongside new policy changes that require some applicants to go back to their home countries as part of Green Card processing.
