"NUMBER OF CHILDREN – Entries MUST include the name, date, and place of birth of your spouse and
all natural children. Entries must also include all children legally adopted by you, and step-children who are
unmarried and under the age of 21 on the date of your electronic entry, even if you are no longer legally
married to the child’s parent, and even if the spouse or child does not currently reside with you and/or will not
immigrate with you. Note that married children and children 21 years or older are not eligible for the DV;
however, U.S. law protects children from ―aging out‖ in certain circumstances. If your DV entry is made
before your unmarried child turns 21, and the child turns 21 before visa issuance, he/she may be protected
from aging out by the Child Status Protection Act and be treated as though he/she were under 21 for visaprocessing purposes. You are not required to list a spouse or child who is already a U.S. citizen or a Lawful
Permanent Resident, as they will not be eligible for a DV visa. Failure to list all children who are eligible
will result in disqualification of the principal applicant and refusal of all visas in the case at the time
of the visa interview. See Frequently Asked Question #11."
