Donald Trump reveals plans to sell $5,000,000 ‘Gold Card’ visas to migrants<\/h1>\n

The new route would offer a fast-track to US citizenship<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/header>\n

The president has revealed plans to sell $5,000,000 ‘Gold Card’ visas to migrants.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Donald Trump<\/a>\u00a0is reportedly reviewing plans to launch a ‘gold card’ visa, which would grant wealthy immigrants the chance to work in the\u00a0United States<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The visa route would even offer the migrants a fast-track to US citizenship.<\/p>\n

However, it’s not cheap, coming in at $5\u00a0million<\/a>\u00a0dollars per applicant.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0president<\/a>\u00a0has said the ‘gold card’ would replace the current EB-5 visa route and be exclusive to vetted, millionaire migrants.<\/p>\n

Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office on Tuesday (February 25), Trump said: “We’re going to be selling a gold card. You have a green card. This is a gold card.”<\/p>\n

He revealed the gold card would be like a ‘green card privileges plus’ and ready to launch within a fortnight.<\/p>\n

The 78-year-old also teased it would offer a unique ‘route to citizenship’ that as ‘never been done before,’ adding: “They’ll be wealthy and they’ll be successful, and they’ll be spending a lot of money and paying a lot of taxes and employing a lot of people, and we think it’s going to be extremely successful.”<\/p>\n

US Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick dubbed the option the ‘Trump gold card’ and slammed the current EB-5 visa as ‘full of nonsense and make-believe fraud.’<\/p>\n

The EB-5 visa costs around $20,000 and stipulates overseas investors have to invest around a million dollars into a US company.<\/p>\n

“We’re going to end the EB-5 program and we’re going to replace it with the Trump gold card,” he said.<\/p>\n

Lutnick further revealed the ‘gold card’ will be reserved for ‘wonderful world-class global citizens’ and would go towards tackling the federal deficit.<\/p>\n

The White House team predict the program could raise $55 trillion in revenue and attract affluent foreign investors to the states.<\/p>\n

“You’re getting big taxpayers, big job producers, and we’ll be able to sell maybe a million of these cards, maybe more than that,” Trump continued. “It could be great, maybe it will be fantastic.”<\/p>\n

The president claimed the loop-hole doesn’t need Congress approval, either.<\/p>\n

“We don’t need Congress … It’s a path to citizenship, a very strong path to citizenship, but we’re not doing citizenship. For that I’d have to get Congress,” he said.<\/p>\n

It would also be open to foreign investors from around the world, meaning it would be open to\u00a0Russian<\/a>\u00a0businesspeople and oligarchs to apply for a gold card, providing they can cough up the $5 million fee.<\/p>\n

“I know some Russian oligarchs that are very nice people,” Trump continued. “They’re not quite as wealthy as they used to be.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
