Namaste! I keep hearing that this year's DV lottery registration is expected to open around Nov 1. My younger brother is in Kathmandu and wants to enter for the first time. Since the instructions change every year, for those who entered recently: does he need a valid passport before entering, and how strict really is the photo (size, background, glasses)? He wants to prepare everything himself instead of paying an agent who promises a guaranteed selection. Also - one entry per person, and submitting twice can cancel all of them, correct? Any advice from people who did it last cycle is appreciated. Thank you!
