What occupations qualify for the DV Program?
The Department of Labor O*Net Online Database groups job experience into five “job zones”. While many occupations are listed on this website, only certain specified occupations qualify for the DV Program. To qualify for a Diversity Visa on the basis of the work experience, an applicant must, within the past five years, have two years of experience in an occupation that is designated as Job Zone 4 or 5, classified in a Specific Vocational Preparation (SVP) range of 7.0 or higher.
