Trump's Gold Card Program Offers U.S. Residency Options

According to PANews, U.S. President Donald Trump has announced the opening of applications for the Trump Gold Card, which includes personal, platinum, and corporate options. The Trump Gold Card allows individuals to obtain U.S. residency by paying a processing fee and contributing $1 million after Homeland Security approval. The Trump Platinum Card offers the opportunity to reside in the U.S. for up to 270 days without paying taxes on non-U.S. income, requiring a $5 million deposit following Homeland Security review. The Trump Corporate Gold Card is available to corporate sponsors for one or more employees. Sponsors must pay a non-refundable fee for each employee, and upon completion of employee review, a $2 million donation per employee will demonstrate the employee's potential benefit to the U.S. The card allows sponsors to transfer sponsorship to new employees using the initial donation amount without additional contributions. An annual maintenance and transfer fee applies. Previously, Trump introduced the $5 million Gold Card initiative as a replacement for the EB-5 investment immigration program.
