Title: Diversity Immigrants 
Abstract: Section 131 of the Immigration Act of 1990, Pub. L. 101-649, amended the INA by adding section 203(c). This section creates a new immigrant visa diversity program which differs from previous diversity programs. The implementing regulation will have to address: (1) the identification of countries to be included in the program by applying the numbers of aliens granted permanent resident status in the United States as computed by the INS to the statutory equations; (2) the operational scheme that will assess the educational and work experience requirements of the applicant with necessary precautions for the prevention of fraud; (3) the establishment of a mail-in registration program; and (4) the development of an application form for the implementation of the diversity program.
