The green card lottery is also called the DV (diversity visa) lottery. Each year, 50,000 immigrant visas are made available through a lottery to people who come from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States. Anyone who is selected under this lottery will be given the opportunity to apply for permanent residence. If permanent residence is granted, then the individual will be authorized to live and work permanently in the United States. You will also be allowed to bring your spouse and any unmarried children under the age of 21 to the United States.
I have seen the website of usafis (http://www.usafis.org), and I have to say it looks shady. I say this because you are required to submit your personal info (home phone, email address, etc) and financial information (like credit cards and expiration dates). Next thing you know, they'll be calling you and emailing you to squeeze money out of you.
Do not give out any personal or financial information to usafis or you'll be sorry. You don't need usafis or any organization to enter the lottery. You can easily do it yourself. Entering the lottery is free, but if you win, you must pay a fee for an immigrant visa and a separate visa lottery surcharge. But remember that no one is supposed to get in touch with you by phone or email.
Be careful of scams. There are lots out there. Remember that the winners will never be notified by phone or email, only by mail at the addresses listed on their applications. Winners will be sent instructions and information on fees. Being selected as a winner in the diversity visa lottery does not automatically guarantee that you will be issued a visa, even if you are qualified. The number of entries selected is greater than the number of immigrant visas available, because not everyone selected will be qualified for the visa or will choose to complete the processing. Once all 50,000 visas have been issued, the diversity visa program for the year will end.
This is the real website that you need:

Why would you want to do that??? Read some of the questions in the Government section and then decide if you still feel the same. |

dont do it. you are safer in Canada, will be better cared for by your government, will receive better medical attention and have more realistic expenses there. |

If you have the right skills, you can work with an employer to get in, but my question to you is: "Why would want to move away from your universal health care system?"
Here is a link to the lottery system:
