Is State.gov down - March, 2023?

The Diversity Lottery is a program that was introduced by the U.S. government to provide an opportunity for individuals from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States to obtain permanent resident status. Under the program, each year a certain number of visas are made available to people who are randomly selected through a lottery draw. The Diversity Lottery is open to citizens of countries that have sent fewer than 50,000 immigrants to the United States in the past five years.
