After you have completed the steps on the Diversity Visa Process on usvisas.state.gov, including submitting the required immigrant visa application form (DS-260), you may receive an email from the Kentucky Consular Center (KCC) to let you know that an interview has been scheduled for you. The email will instruct you to log into the Entrant Status Check on the Electronic Diversity Visa (E-DV) website, using the DV entry confirmation number, to view the date, time and location of your interview. We recommend that you check the website once per month to find out whether an appointment has been scheduled for you. Please note that the application fee is paid at the U.S. Embassy on the day of the interview.

In addition to the required documents listed on usvisas.state.gov, there are two country-specific documents for Bulgaria:

• Court certificate from Bulgaria (for all applicants who Bulgarian citizens or residents in Bulgaria over the age of 16);
• Certificate of Marital Status, Spouse and Children for all Bulgarian citizens over the age of 18.
