Washington Post: “In the months since President Donald Trump launched a special “gold card” visa that would grant citizenship to people willing to pay $1 million, his administration has touted the program as a success. The president has called it a “green card on steroids,” and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick claimed the program has brought in $1.3 billion in revenue.”
“But in a new legal filing, the White House admitted that only a small pool of people have even started the process, let alone paid the government. In the court document, the administration said it has received 338 requests for the gold card visa and, of those people, 165 have actually paid the nonrefundable $15,000 filing fee to move forward. Just 59 people have moved on to the subsequent step of filling out paperwork from the Department of Homeland Security.”
