To check green card lottery results, ensure you have the confirmation number. The other information you need is personal details. Checking of green card lottery results usually starts from May of following year after you apply. It is a continuous process until it is officially closed. People make a mistake of checking once and assuming that since they have not been selected, all is lost. Meanwhile others wait to be notified via email or phone which is not the case.
