【Million Dollar Green Card? The 'Trump Gold Card' opens for application today, with the platinum card priced at 5 million dollars set to launch soon】
The controversial 'Trump Gold Card' visa program officially opens for applications on December 10. According to details released by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, individual applicants must pay 1 million dollars, while business applicants must pay 2 million dollars to obtain U.S. residency, and an additional 15,000 dollars must be paid as processing and review fees.
💳 Not just the Gold Card, but also the 'Platinum Card'
According to the U.S. government website, another higher-end 'Platinum Card Program' is labeled as 'coming soon', priced at up to 5 million dollars. Analysts point out that the Platinum Card may offer higher-tier treatment in terms of approval priority and benefits range.
🎯 Policy Positioning: Screening High-Net-Worth Immigrants
This program continues and upgrades the 'EB-5 Investment Immigration' approach promoted by Trump during his first term, significantly raising the financial threshold to attract ultra-high-net-worth individuals and corporate capital inflows to the U.S., essentially being an 'immigration auction' aimed at the wealthy class.
⚠️ Controversy and Impact
Supporters believe this move can attract investment and talent to the U.S.; opponents criticize it for 'monetizing' immigration rights, exacerbating social inequality, and potentially becoming a fundraising tool for specific political agendas. Immigration lawyers also remind applicants that they still need to pass security and background checks, and high fees do not guarantee approval.
The immigration path paved with money once again places America's identity and access mechanisms in the spotlight. Thank you for liking and following. $BTC $ETH $BNB #美联储FOMC会议
