DIVERSITY VISA PROBE
I received this in my inbox this morning.......kindly advice if its legitimate.

"U.S. Department of State Bureau of Consular Affairs Banner

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE DIVERSITY IMMIGRANT VISA PROGRAM


You have been selected at random from over 12.1 million qualified entries (16.5 million with derivatives) received. The diversity lottery was conducted under the terms of section 203(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act which makes available 50,000 permanent resident visas annually to persons from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States.

The annual DV program makes visas available to persons meeting simple, but strict, eligibility requirements. The Department of State implemented the electronic fees processing system beginning with DV-2005 in order to make the DV process more efficient and secure.

With the Diversity Visa (also known as Green Card) you will enjoy all the advantages and benefits of a U.S. permanent resident, including health and education benefits, and employment opportunities along with guidance in your new country, orientation sessions and programs to integrate into mainstream American society. Once received you can use it at any time you want to move in the United States or just travel. The visa must be renewed after 10 years.

U.S. Government helps you with the accommodation and offers you Health Insurance (Freedom HSA Direct Individual Health insurance for 1 year), Dwelling (Apartment in any city you prefer, 1 bedroom for 3 months ), a guaranteed job (in the field that you are are currently qualified so you can start working even from the first week you arrive in the United States and get paid as U.S citizen. ) and education (for U.S. Students or Higher Education through Education USA. It includes transfer to a U.S college or University so you can continue your educational study.

PROCESSING FEES :

Is the Diversity Visa FREE ?

No. There is a big confusion. Only the participation in the Diversity Visa Lottery was free but the winners must pay the visa processing fees.

United States Permanent Resident Card Granted! - Waiting for payment of processing fee US $785.00

Although the Diversity Visa participation was free, the law and regulations require to every diversity visa winner to pay a visa processing fee of US $785.00. The Diversity Visa (Green Card) is guaranteed upon receiving the payment. The per person fee for each Diversity Visa is US $785.00, payable in U.S. dollars or equivalent of your local currency. This US $785.00 fee is the only fee a winner needs to pay throughout the entire relocation process. Accompanying family members (wife/husband, fiancee, brothers, sisters, childrens, cousins) may be included in the program and their visas will be provided at the same time with yours so you can travel/move together in the same time. However the fees must be paid per person and each member(e.g wife, brother, parents, childrens, cousin) must pay US $785.00. There is no discount for childrens.

Please note that you are allowed to take with you as many family members you want. However for each person you must pay an additional amount of US $785.00. For example if you decide to move in the United States with your wife and a kid the total fee is US $785.00 (your fee) + US $785.00 (your wife's fee) + US $785.00 (your kid's fee) = US $2,355.00.

PURPOSE: The U.S. Department of State uses the fee payment primarily to process your visa related documents and verify your identity. Also you will get plane tickets for your travel. You can use the tickets at any time you want to move in the United States or just travel.
Visa Payment processing instructions

The fees must be paid using bank transfer and will be processed by the U.S. embassy in the United Kingdom. The U.S. Department of State decided this based on the diplomatic relations with your country. In order to receive the bank details for paying the processing fees you need to upload your passport and the passport or National ID of your accompanying family members ( only if this is the case ). If you do not have a passport you can use your National ID.

You must email your documents at support@dv-state.com.

Please include your last name and your confirmation number.

Example (Identity ID or Passport for each member of your family)*

Formats File Acceptateble : JPG, PNG, PDF, GIF, TIFF, DOC, DOCX

Within 24 hours after you have uploaded the documents, you will receive a confirmation via email with the bank details for paying the processing fees. The processing fees must be paid no later than May 1, 2015. You are strongly encouraged not to wait until the last day to pay. Heavy demand may result in system delays. Under no circumstances can diversity visas be issued or adjustments approved after this date, nor can family members obtain diversity visas to follow-to-join the principal applicant in the U.S. after this date.

After you have paid the processing fees, within 72 hours, you will receive a confirmation via email with the exact date and time of the final interview. Upon successful interview you will receive your documents and travel information to move in the United States.

You have been selected winner of the Diversity Visa lottery so the visa is guaranteed upon receiving the payment fees on time. A hard copy of this letter will be mailed to your postal address upon receiving the payment fees.

HelpFor any questions please contact U.S. Department of State's Support at support@dv-state.com. Always include your last name and your Confirmation Number.
