The Trump administration rolled out the Gold Card visa, granting green cards in exchange for a one million dollar investment. A two million dollar Corporate Gold Card allows companies to fast track residency for employees, while a five million dollar Platinum Card with tax benefits is awaiting congressional approval. Officials suggest this program could replace EB-1 and EB-2 visas. Critics warn it shifts immigration from skills-based to wealth-based, risking shortages in key fields like technology and healthcare.
