About The Program

What is Trump Gold Card?

The Trump Gold Card is a visa based upon an individual's ability to provide a substantial benefit to the United States. To apply, an applicant must pay a nonrefundable, $15,000 DHS processing fee. Once an applicant's processing fee is received, the process for petition approval and visa adjudication will take place on an expedited basis, assuming applicants submit any additional documents or fees in a timely manner. that despite "expedited" processing, applicants are still required to wait for their EB-1 / EB-2 priority date based on their country in the visa bulletin in order to get a green card, and this part cannot be expedited.A $1 million gift upon completion of the individual's vetting is evidence that the individual will substantially benefit the United States. An individual may also need to pay small, additional fees to the U.S. Department of State depending on his or her circumstances.

BTM INSIGHT

Why EB-5 Is Still
A More Rational Choice?

For most families, immigration is not just about securing residency, but also a global allocation of family assets.

01. Consumption vs. Investment

Trump Gold Card is essentially an expensive 'consumption'. Once paid, this $1-5 million becomes a sunk cost, disappearing forever. You're buying 'speed', but at the cost of direct net worth reduction.

02. Asset Preservation Logic

EB-5 is completely different. Although the threshold is $800,000, this money doesn't disappear, but is 'locked' in compliant projects. After the investment period, if USCIS requirements are met, the principal will be fully refunded.

03. Legal Certainty

Executive orders can be halted by a single judge or abolished by the next president. But EB-5 is federal law passed by both houses of Congress. For major decisions affecting the whole family's future, certainty is often more important than a 'seemingly shortcut'.
