For the DV lottery, I understand that we need to provide our passport number, country of issuance, and expiration date.
If I lost the lottery and decided to visit the United States in the future then when the border officer swipes my passport, he'll see on his screen that I applied to the DV lottery in the past.
Wouldn't he give me a hard time because he might suspect that I have an intention to immigrate?
