Nationals of countries where more than 50,000 citizens have immigrated to the U.S. in the last five years are not eligible to apply for a Green Card. The list of countries whose nationals may not participate is published each year by USCIS. Here is the list of countries not allowed to participate in the Green Card 2025 lottery draw.
