The Department of State administers the congressionally mandated Diversity Immigrant Visa Program, which is conducted on an annual basis under the terms of Section 203(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). The INA provides a maximum of 55,000 Diversity Visas each fiscal year to be made available to persons from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States. Since DV-1999, Congress has set aside 5,000 of this annual allocation to be made available for use under the Nicaraguan and Central American Relief Act (NACARA).
