We reserve the right to decline the Application Form for any reason whatsoever, at our sole discretion. Each diversity visa application must be done and paid independently; therefore, if you wish to submit multiple applications, you will need to submit each Application Form separately and pay the applicable Fees (as defined hereunder) for each Application Form.
