Green Card Lottery And Internship?

El Diablo 101 · 2010-08-18 17:30:10

Hi guys, I am hoping to get an internship in the US next year (2011) and was wondering if I were to get it, (it would be a J or F visa, I believe) would that disqualify me in any way from applying for the green card lottery, or receiving it if I won? Thanks guys

No, not at all. It might actually help. It's useful to have contacts and a leg up. If you were to win the lottery you'd have some grounding which is good at the interview, instead of just going out there with nothing and knowing no one.
