Although the KCC officially says it informs winners of the Diversity Lottery between May and June, some people receive their letter before May every year. Sometimes as early as March. I’ve already heard of people receiving a letter, informing them they won the DV2006, in Asia and Australia.
Today someone at a Dutch forum posted a message that he had received confirmation of winning. I’m not sure yet if it is true or an April fools joke, but I think it can be true. This means that it’s a very exciting time for Sweety and me. Not only because our Government might fall (again!) but more importantly: if one of us wins the Lottery we should receive a letter between now and June, and wheter they fall or not, it won’t be our Government any more before too long :)
UPDATE: It was a joke....
It was an April fool's joke... so we stilll have a chance :))
