The "Gold Card" residency card, a new route to U.S. citizenship for affluent foreigners, was just proposed by U.S. President Donald Trump. According to rumors, this scheme will take the place of the current EB-5 investor visa program, which has been a well-liked path for foreign investors looking to get permanent residency in the United States.It is anticipated that the Gold Card program will drastically change the US immigration scene, especially for Indian candidates who previously depended on the EB-5 visa.

What is the US Visa Gold Card? For those who are prepared to invest $5 million in the United States, the Gold Card visa provides a straight path to US citizenship. Speaking from the White House, Trump emphasized that this visa would provide the same advantages as a Green Card, but for those who can pay it, it would speed up the process of becoming a citizen."We will be offering a Gold Card for sale. This is a Gold Card; you have a Green Card. Trump informed reporters, "We're going to be putting a price on that card of about $5 million."
